that's where to look. Not happy with Trump, but not necessarily just switching to democratic candidates (not that everyone votes monolithically but trends are useful to see where we are at leading up to the midterms). Talarico should be able to win against Paxton, but as noted in the article: ""The reality is that Democrats are still underperforming the levels of support that they would need from Latinos to be successful," she said." So, we have work to do.
