WASHINGTON U.S. Rep. Colin Allred and the Texas Democratic Party are launching a coordinated campaign to consolidate resources for races up and down the ticket, the party and Allred campaign announced Wednesday morning.
The initiative, dubbed Texas Offense, will allow candidates down the ballot to share data and information resources, letting different Democratic candidates better coordinate as they knock on doors, call voters and engage in other campaign activities. Its the partys first coordinated campaign of its kind focusing on the grassroots in over 20 years. Allred is running to unseat U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz.
Throughout my football career at Baylor and the NFL, Ive always played defense. But now, along with Texans from all across our state, we are fully on offense to beat Ted Cruz, Allred said in a statement. I am a fourth-generation Texan, and no matter what Ted Cruz says, this election is about giving 30 million Texans a Senator who will do the job for all of us. Our grassroots campaign of Texans is ready to win because we cannot afford six more years of Ted Cruz.
Texas Democrats are fired up and ready to beat Ted Cruz, said Gilberto Hinojosa, chair of the Texas Democratic Party. This is a historic partnership that will help galvanize grassroots excitement for Congressman Allred across our state. One conversation at a time, with Texans talking to Texans we are going to send Ted Cruz packing.
