And how do you think of that as different from Alabama?

It's compared, like we obviously, Doug Jones was, you know, Senator obviously in a bit of a fluke situation, but nevertheless, we did have- More African-American voters in Mississippi.

I've been intrigued by more of the labor activity in the state.

Obviously, UAW had done a Mercedes organizing campaign.

There's Amazon warehouse organizing in Alabama.

There was United Mine Workers who had been fighting –

your shipbuilders down in mobile i mean there's definitely some i think the labor base starts and it leads to a candidate too so we're talking we're thinking about a candidate it's intrigued by you know holly schaffner i think is her name who's uh who's running against tom cotton this cycle in arkansas i mean obviously very very uphill fight but i i love i love her bio she's a work farmer who you know who's standing with the farm workers and very economic minded argument and i'm like that

That I like for Arkansas.

That's a good that's a good candidate.

But I'd like to see it for Alabama, for Mississippi, putting forward those kinds of working class candidates that represent what I think are a lot of Democratic voters by history.

I mean, we know these about West Virginia's and these kinds of states that if you go back to lineage, they've been Democratic voters, but they just feel the Democratic Party has left them.

I think so.

Yeah.

Tallarico, in many ways, in my view, at least, was embodying a lot of a Bernie kind of argument with a different type of tone and style.

And so I think I think I was very pleased to see that kind.

I mean, I did feel like here's a guy who's campaigning on a version of what I could imagine Senator Sanders doing in Texas.

Yes.

And he's talked only about his respect and admiration for Senator Sanders.

So I think that I was there with him.

Crockett, obviously, having gotten Kamala's endorsement, it felt much more around a reflexive anti-Trump type of campaign, which does meet a lot of voters where they're at, of give me that fight in a sense of swagger and comfort and a kind of, I am prepared to not play by rules with this guy.
