I can�t help but believe that Crocket was not the best candidate to win. Polls just closed. Probably low reporting thus far.

1. 54.8 - 43.4 Crockett with just 11.7% counted, just a few areas in east /south Texas

[Melon]

3. I don't know if you are actually Texan

But it looks like those areas are South East( Houston) and North East ( Dallas). Just a little of each. South West Dallas is for Crockett which makes sense on the demographic, North Dallas Talarico.

2. Uphill race for either candidate in November

But Crocket especially.

5. I'm calling it now..whoever is our nominee will win

in November

[Towlie]

6. It's Crockett with two "t"s.

It's a hard choice because we don't want to choose the one we like, we want choose the one who will win.

[Melon]

11. I think I picked the one I want and the one that can win.

7. Cornyn currently lead Paxton on the (R) side.

[ananda]

8. Cornyn is leading Paxton.

I also wonder if that will hold.

[newdeal2]

12. If that holds true

He will be tough to be beat in November.

[ananda]

15. That's what I was thinking.

...

[Demixs]

14. Paxton is going to win that one

Early vote tilts Cornyn.

[hamsterjill]

20. Only until Paxton decides to start his cheat.

I also wonder if Cornyn will hold. Seriously. Going to be interested.

[Johnny2X2X]

10. Tamarisk has a sizable lead now

Both great candidates.

[Wiz Imp]

13. Talarico now in the lead (52.2% to 46.7%) with 31% counted

17. it's gonna be a nail biter, Talarico just surged ahead

[Prairie Gates]

18. Talarico is going to win by a lot

He might hit 58%

[Wiz Imp]

19. 🙄

[dutch777]

21. I like Crockett a lot but in TX, Talarico may be the better candidate to pull moderate votes from Repugs.

Long shot supposedly but the key is to get a Dem win.

[Oldvet]

23. He can win

In November.

I think it's a better chance since some people think

[Melon]

22. Dallas polls open another 2 hours. Extended. Close at 9pm.
