As Texas heads into a pivotal election year, Kate and Alex kick off the new year with a special recap and resolutions episode inspired by The West Wing. From precinct chairs and working-class messaging to gun safety, faith, and grassroots turnout, this episode breaks down what Texas Democrats must do to actually win. 

Channeling Sam, Toby, CJ, Josh, and President Bartlet, the hosts revisit their first twelve episodes and lay out concrete resolutions for flipping Texas.

We also spark a little friendly Texas rivalry by revealing which major cities are actually showing up on the ground — and which ones need to step it up — based on the percentage of precinct chairs filled in each area. 

In true West Wing fashion, this episode is both a roadmap and a rallying cry — a reminder that “what’s next” isn’t waiting on a blue wave. It’s built by people who decide to stand up, get organized, and do the work.
