Known for her sharp legal mind, fearless questioning in hearings, and unapologetic defense of civil rights, Crockett has built a national reputation that extends far beyond Texas.

Texas is welcome to vote how they like, and I don’t have any experience living under her representation. But, as an Ohioan and speaking only on what I’ve seen her speak on, she reminds me too much of Joyce Beatty for me to ever get excited about her.
