Talarico called the allegation a “mischaracterization of a private conversation" and said he was describing Allred's "method of campaigning." Allred, Talarico’s main rival in the Senate primary before dropping his bid, also urged Democrats to vote for Talarico’s opponent, Jasmine Crockett.

In an interview with Houston Public Media, Talarico called his party leaderless, explained why he’s embracing the state of “wilderness” the Democrats are in right now and how he told fellow Senate candidate Colin Allred of his interest in the race months ago.
U.S. Sen. John Cornyn is closing the gap with his main rival in the March 2026 Republican primary, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, according to a new poll from Texas Southern University’s Barbara Jordan Public Policy Research and Survey Center.
