Can Talarico Win a Texas Senate Seat?

If Dems Get the Majority, Then What?

CTAs

On episode 133 of Native Land Pod, hosts Angela Rye, Andrew Gillum, and Bakari Sellers ask: if Democrats get the majority after this year’s midterms, then what? 

 

We’ve seen Democrats win the senate, the house, and the presidency––and they still couldn’t protect the right to vote (or get an abortion) from future Republican administrations. In this midterms, what will we get for our vote? We need an agenda.  

 

Folks are saying that Texas senate candidate James Talarico has the best chance to flip a Texas senate seat blue in decades, with his opponent, Ken Paxton, covered in scandals. Our hosts are less optimistic and have some advice for Mr. Talarico… 

 

FOR YOUR SITUATIONAL AWARENESS:
Some good news in the ongoing redistricting wars in South Carolina & Alabama, where proposed maps benefiting Republicans have been blocked. 
Meanwhile, in Florida, a new electoral map moves forward…
GA State Senator Rashaun Kemp has called on Georgians to protest redistricting in Georgia at the World Cup game. STAY UPDATED by following Sen. Kemp: https://www.instagram.com/rashaunforgeorgia/?hl=en
The Supreme Court has allowed coach Brian Flores to sue the NFL for discriminating against Black coaches. 
Mike Duggan has dropped out of the Michigan governor race. The independent candidate and former Detroit Mayor said he “got into this race to change our politics, not to be a spoiler.” 
Texas congressman Al Green has lost his primary race to fellow Democratic congressman Christian Menefee, after Texas’ redistricting combined his and Menefee’s districts into one.
