@jamestalarico.bsky.socialUndecided Texas voter: I was really impressed with Talarico this evening. I found a more balanced politician. I was surprised at how centrist he was on many of the issues, and I think that has brought me to a deeper understanding. I like that he invited us to sit down and challenge him.
Show PostQ: Talarico said he would stand up to his own party. Do you believe him? Texas Voter: I do. I think Talarico is kind of the bright light... He seems to me to be someone with integrity, and integrity in politics has been on the decline.
Show PostJames Talarico: I’ve rolled out a plan to crack down on these giant data center companies. We’ve got to force them to pay for their own energy instead of jacking up our utility bills. We got to force them to recycle their water so they are not exacerbating the water crisis here in Texas.
Show PostJames Talarico: I was raised by my granddad, a Baptist preacher, to follow the two commandments Jesus gave us: to love God and to love neighbor. There’s no exception to that second commandment. I’m called to love all of my neighbors, not just my Presbyterian or Christian neighbors.
Show PostJames Talarico: You may have noticed that I haven’t talked about my opponent at all tonight — because I don’t want people to vote just against Ken Paxton, I want them to vote for me. I want them to know my values and my vision.
