Episode Details

Texas Republicans turned out in record numbers for a Senate primary runoff, with early voting surging past 829,000 ballots — more than double the 2020 runoff and a major leap from 2022. The showdown pits incumbent Senator John Cornyn against Attorney General Ken Paxton, the latter gaining a late boost from President Trump’s endorsement. Cornyn, while surprised, remains confident but warns of Paxton’s baggage hurting the GOP in November. The winner will face Democrat James Talarico, who’s already locked in and campaigning against “billionaire mega-donors.” With turnout high and the Republican nominee now set, all eyes turn to November’s general election.
