Dallas Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett Considers U.S. Senate Bid

Recent polling indicates that Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett may hold an early advantage in the competitive Democratic primary for the U.S. Senate seat.

Current Political Landscape

Crockett is reportedly contemplating a run for the Senate seat currently held by Senator John Cornyn, according to sources cited by FOX 4 News in Dallas.

Statewide polls show Crockett leading notable Democratic contenders, including former U.S. Representative James Talarico.
In the Republican primary, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton holds a slim lead over the incumbent Senator Cornyn.
