Music and politics dominated the Current‘s most-read stories this week.

Super Tuesday voting whisked incumbent State Rep. Steve Allison out of his slot on the Republican ticket, while a relatively unknown and virulently anti-Trump protest candidate did well in the Rio Grande Valley.

Meanwhile, a new music fest headed to Market Square and the release of a preliminary lineup for the new (and greatly abbreviated) La Semana Alegre at Hemisfair pulled plenty of readers.

And San Antonio being San Antonio, a story about ESPN commentators speculating about Victor Wembanyama’s longevity with the Spurs got a lot of interest from sports fans.
