2/ To help voters make sense of the race, we talked to the top candidates, those who raised at least $100,000 for their campaigns or registered at least 3% support in an October 2019 University of Texas/Texas Tribune Poll. bit.ly/2P3uAJF
3/ We asked the candidates a series of simple questions designed to help Democratic primary voters understand their political and policy-based differences. bit.ly/2P3uAJF
4/ Organizer Cristina Tzintzún Ramirez first entered the race at the urging of former members of Beto O’Rourke’s campaign. Since then, she’s bet on her ability to mobilize young, minority voters and found unlikely backing in actor Alec Baldwin. bit.ly/37KyJZu
5/ Former Houston City Council member Amanda Edwards lost a family member to gun violence, and it’s had an effect on her stance on guns. But her proposals are moderate compared to some of her competitors. bit.ly/325IpMR
6/ Chris Bell was elected to the U.S. House in 2002 and ran for governor in 2006. But he lost that bid — in fact, he’s spent more time running for office than serving in it. Still, Bell says his Congressional experience sets him apart from his competition. bit.ly/2Hxe0xz
7/ In his 27 years in office, Democratic state Sen. Royce West was a pivotal player in a campaign to flip Dallas County the same way his party now hopes to flip Texas. He’s betting on that experience and many years in office in his bid. bit.ly/2uW5NQH
8/ U.S. Air Force veteran MJ Hegar says her experience in the military and challenges she faced as a woman serving her country made her the fighter Democrats need against incumbent John Cornyn. bit.ly/2uNVNsV
9/ We sat down with those Democratic candidates for hourlong conversations about their views on everything from gun safety to health care to school funding. bit.ly/2SOYIsY
