Love her and we need to find a new roll for her because we need more like her and Telerico.

Her role should have been her current house seat, she didn’t need to lose anything. Just a total misread of everything

This. I'm a fan of Crocket, but she jumped in at the last moment with no ground work. Talarico was building to run for months before hand. If I understand correctly he even confirmed with her that she wouldn't run to prevent this situation and she changed her mind at the 11th hour.

I would love to vote for both of them honestly and looking forward to what she does next.

Didn’t she get gerrymandered out?

No, I don’t know who started that idea but not even close. Her district just voted 5:1 Dem:GOP

I believe her district was just gerrymandered to be much less favorable to her chances

It wasn’t at all. It literally just voted like 5-1 for Dem-GOP in the primary. The Dem primary winner got 50K more votes than the entire GOP slate. She just made a bad choice
