Paxton’s Win Signals Trump’s Midterm Surge
Description
Ken Paxton just crushed John Cornyn in a historic Texas Senate primary, winning nearly 64% — the first time in 50 years a sitting senator was ousted this way. Trump’s calling it a midterm preview, citing a surge in his base backing endorsed candidates, following similar upsets against GOP incumbents who didn’t toe his line. While Paxton’s legal baggage and a shifted Cook Report rating make the race more uncertain, Texas remains deeply Republican — and Talarico’s fundraising edge won’t save him from the electorate’s loyalty.
