The closely watched Texas primaries on Tuesday marked the start of the midterms and maybe the first opportunity for pollsters and pundits to pour over some results in search of nationwide lessons.
The state is a long shot for Democrats, but James Tallarico's winning campaign against Jasmine Crockett has some wondering if his message could ultimately deliver Democrats their first statewide win in more than 30 years.
And on the Republican side, the state's scandal-prone Attorney General Ken Paxton took the incumbent Senator John Cornyn to a runoff.
To dig a little bit deeper into what all of it means, I spoke to Steve Kornacki, NBC News' chief data analyst, about what he saw and what stood out to him.
Yeah, and are there any particular constituencies or parts of the electorate that really jumped out to you for either the Democratic side or the Republican side?
Yeah.
And so the Texas Senate matchup, not quite set yet.
But in North Carolina, the Senate matchup is set.
That's another state that is going to be critical in terms of overall congressional control.
What should people know about North Carolina?
And so what are you going to be looking for in the primaries next week and in the months ahead?
Steve Farnacki, thank you so much for your time.
Really appreciate it.
You got it.
Thanks for having me.
In that Texas Senate race, President Trump said that he plans to endorse soon and that the other candidate should drop out.
You can find more coverage and takeaways of these primaries in the Apple News app.
And Cecilia is back with you next.
Are there notes of caution here for Democrats?
Yes, there are.
