Closing Arguments

Ken Paxton’s former top cop on why he’s voting for James Talarico: I spent 2 hours with James Talarico. Number one, I saw no deception. He answered all my difficult questions. He didn’t dodge anything. He hit it head on. I have been around politicians my entire life. I served 5 governors, I’ve met 4 presidents… And James Talarico is so different than other people I’ve encountered. I think he’s the man who needs to go to Washington DC, and Ken Paxton needs to go home.

And how much did Elmo pay a political consultant to come up with that one and post it on the last day of early voting? Does he imagine this is outreach?
