Talarico - "I want to start off by thanking Congresswoman Crockett."

"She is a colleague and a friend. I am so grateful for her voice and her leadership. It was an honor to run this race with her.
To the congresswoman's supporters: I know I wasn't your first choice, but I hope to earn your trust and earn your support as your Democratic nominee. It's on me to ensure you feel welcomed in, represented by, and proud of this campaign.
Together, we're going to do something extraordinary."

I did want Crockett, but Talarico will be a great candidate. Let’s break through in Texas!

I think both of them would have been great. I'm very happy to hear that they will be working together to get him elected. Outstanding unity!

Two very gracious speeches by candidates who recognize that the old way of politics doesn't work any more.
