In the home stretch of his campaign, Republican Senate Candidate Ted Cruz is stumping for himself and fellow GOP candidates.

Cruz made campaign stops today in Fort Worth and Mesquite.

Cruz: "I want to challenge you that 13 days from today, as the sun goes down on November 6th, that each and every one of us can look in the mirrors and say to ourselves, ‘self, I did everything I could. I put every ounce of passion, every ounce of energy, all of my efforts into turning this country around."

While in North Texas he traveled with state Republican Party Chairman Steve Munisteri and was joined by candidates Mark Shelton and Kenneth Sheets.

Cruz’s Democratic opponent Paul Sadler is campaigning in Corpus Christi, San Antonio and Houston through the weekend.
