RE: https://flipboard.com/@washpost/politics-5lk2u4b7z/-/a-Et1iQSlyQ4--RaJVftlfrA%3Aa%3A419161690-%2F0 Talarico’s religious appeals are framed as a reach across the aisle here, but I think that’s an inaccurate analysis. It’s likely Talarico’s religious references will skew broader in the general to appeal to a wider net. But his slogan in the primary was “let’s flip some tables” — a theological argument aimed directly at the Democratic base, not Republicans. This is actually pretty common: faith-outreach among Democrats has long been a key way to appeal to base voters, full stop.
