Can Talarico Turn Texas Blue? | James Talarico vs 20 Undecided Voters Surrounded Follow-Up

The reason I heard about Tallarico is one because of the Joe Rogan podcast and two, because I saw that clip of him on social media where he was explaining why he's against the Ten Commandments being in the classroom.

friendly to my neighbor in a biblical sense like quoting the bible um definitely works in his favor i think that a lot of people who are on the left and are christian are going to sway their votes towards him the same thing for on the right and christian um you know there's never a perfect candidate but few people who are hesitant about ken paxton um because again it's going to probably come down to ken paxton uh talarico or uh i think it's jasmine crockett correct

Yeah, I think Tallarico is going to get the Democratic vote, and I think it's going to be down to him and Ken Paxton.

But I think what makes him such a great candidate and is giving him an edge is his Christianity.

A lot of people on the left, of course, they can identify as Christian, but they choose to separate church versus state, whereas he is kind of blurring the line, and he's very much attracting that group.

And especially here in Texas, you know, everybody is so conservative.

Can Talarico Turn Texas Blue? | James Talarico vs 20 Undecided Voters Surrounded Follow-Up

Can Talarico Turn Texas Blue? | James Talarico vs 20 Undecided Voters Surrounded Follow-Up

I think this is definitely going to work for him, and I don't agree with everything he says, but I think he's resonating with a lot of people.

trying to kind of frame see i i can't i agree with him in a certain sense but i can't fully agree i agree that the algorithms do play a role so i work in tech so basically whatever you like interact with in your algorithm it comes you know it keeps showing you it because that's what you're engaging with that's what you like they want to keep you on the app as long as you can i don't think necessarily that you know the zuck or elon um are necessarily pushing a certain narrative like

Surrounded
Can Talarico Turn Texas Blue? | James Talarico vs 20 Undecided Voters Surrounded Follow-Up

You need to put this on the algorithm or you want ABC out there when you put this on the algorithm.

Surrounded
Can Talarico Turn Texas Blue? | James Talarico vs 20 Undecided Voters Surrounded Follow-Up

I think I mean, excuse me, not algorithm on your timeline.

Surrounded
Can Talarico Turn Texas Blue? | James Talarico vs 20 Undecided Voters Surrounded Follow-Up

I think the algorithm is all based off of what you interact with.

Can Talarico Turn Texas Blue? | James Talarico vs 20 Undecided Voters Surrounded Follow-Up

Yes, exactly.

So if I'm far right or far left and I'm interacting with posts that agree with my ideology, like I said in the interview or debate, excuse me, it definitely does become an echo chamber.
