Texas state lawmaker James Talarico, a Democrat and pastor known for his unifying rhetoric, is set to launch a run for the U.S. senate in Texas. Talarico gained wider recognition after Joe Rogan suggested he would make a good presidential candidate<\/a>. He emphasizes politics less as a left-versus-right battle and more as a struggle between the powerful and the rest of the people, advocating for unity across divides. Talarico joins Rep. Colin Allred and possibly former Rep. Beto O’Rourke in the Senate race. The Republican primary is contested between incumbent Sen. John Cornyn and Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, with democrats viewing Paxton’s more right-wing stance as increasing their chances of winning. Democrats have not held a Texas U.S. Senate seat for decades.
