Could Talarico win? Maybe. I find it highly unlikely. But if he does, it's only because Ken Paxton is a huge piece of shit even Republicans kind of hate.
But is electing an anti-trans Democrat supposed to make me happy? The way I see it, we will be blamed regardless of whether he wins or loses. Either we're traitors (boo-hiss) or he made the right call in throwing us under the bus.
