James Talarico is a former public school teacher and current seminary student
who has built a following among Democrats in Texas and beyond
for his sermons and floor exchanges challenging Christian nationalism.
Talarico will be an underdog heading into the general election.
The race will be a reach, even if he ends up facing Republican Attorney General Paxton

It will also be absurdly expensi…
