The Texas Democratic U.S. Senate primary between Jasmine Crockett and James Talarico is heating up as early voting continues ahead of the March 3 primary. Talarico has gained national attention after CBS pulled his unaired interview with Stephen Colbert due to regulatory concerns, triggering a fundraising surge of about $2.5 million in 24 hours and boosting his profile.
