.RepColinAllred made it official: He's challenging Sen TedCruz for Senate. 'We deserve a senator whose team is Texas. Ted Cruz only cares about himself,' Allred said in his announcement video.
The congressman came out swinging against Cruz, portraying him as an out-of-touch culture warrior uninterested in improving the lives of everyday Texans. Rumors swirled for months that he planned to run against Cruz. His launch video ticked off a slew of grievances with the incumbent senator.
Since then, he's held on to his seat twice despite hailing from a swing district full of conservative voters. He is a former NFL player, civil rights attorney, and special assistant in the Obama-era Department of Housing and Urban Development's Office of General Counsel. Allred is one of 13 Democrats in the 40-member Texas congressional delegation.
