Can Democrats win a Texas Senate seat?

James Talarico has Democrats hoping for a potential Texas Senate seat pickup in his race against Republican Ken Paxton. CNN’s Jeff Zeleny explains how Talarico will need to build a wide coalition to pull off a historic Democratic victory in the Lone Star State.

What the coverage shows

The New York Times frames the item as a warning about what Democrats would need to do if they win the Senate, stressing that they would have to make the most of any majority. CNN instead centers a specific Texas race, asking whether Democrats can win a Senate seat there and highlighting James Talarico’s challenge against Ken Paxton. The coverage converges on Senate prospects for Democrats, but the Times stays general while CNN is focused on one state and one contest.
