Talarico: On election night, as I was delivering my victory speech, I noticed a woman up front. The lights were bright, so I couldn’t see her face, but I was struck by her attention, how closely she was listening, how much this moment meant to her.
As I finished speaking, I looked down again, and she had made her way to the front of the stage. I bent down to shake her hand, and I realized who she was.
She looked me in the eyes, and she said, “I’m so glad you have my father’s job.”
Lucy Baines Johnson was there to see another public school teacher take her dad’s Senate seat.

Between all of the calls, responded to text messages and flood of new information, it is good to meet with some amazing friends going through the same thing.
To say I am proud of these two is an understatement - Aileen and I have been friends for a while now thanks to my dear former legal assistant Adriana Pabon and Dr. Neil and I began a bromance that began fast and hasn’t stopped moving. I am so proud of these two public servants.
