Senator Harris plans to be competitive in Texas.

Quote
Kamala is coming after Beto — in his own backyard.

Hours before the former El Paso congressman unveiled his presidential bid, Harris announced she was heading to Texas — an unmistakable warning shot at a fellow upstart competing to capture the imagination of Democratic voters.

She’ll meet Friday outside Dallas with Tarrant County Democrats, then it’s on to Houston Saturday for a big rally at Texas Southern University in Houston. It’s the start of a sustained, delegate-focused strategy that aims to take advantage of the front-loaded primary calendar in which Texas and California will significantly shape the race on March 3.

Harris has already reached out to Congressional Black Caucus members from Texas, including Reps. Eddie Bernice Johnson, Sheila Jackson Lee, Al Green, Colin Allred and Marc Veasey, according to a Democrat familiar with the calls.

There's no doubt in my mind that Beto will also heavily contest California. He has the money and star power to do it. How do you see these two fairing in their home state, as well as in the other large delegate rich state available?

I believe these two, Biden, and Bernie will have the only viable campaigns on this date. I think both will win with pluralities. Biden and Bernie muddy the waters though. I think Biden would do well along the Rio Grande with older Hispanics, Biden would eat into Harris’s strengths in Houston and East Texas, Bernie would keep Beto from running it up with the white liberals in Austin, Beto and Kamala slugging it out in Dallas and its suburbs.

I don’t know much about California to guess how they’ll go by region, but I’d guess Bernie does best in the North, Beto and Biden in the South, Kamala dominates the Bay Area and eeks out a plurality.
