U.S. Senate

It’s the second time this year a late-night interview with the Texas U.S. Senate candidate has been moved online.

The Democratic Senate candidate says the effort will highlight grocery costs and his campaign’s focus on affordability.

Last month, Democratic candidate James Talarico and Republican candidate Ken Paxton made stops in North Texas in an effort to reach key voter bases in the fastest-growing metropolitan area in the state.

The more than $800,000 ad buy — the first by either candidate in the general election — continues the Austin Democrat's push to win Latino voters as his race against GOP nominee Ken Paxton ramps up.

Now that the party's nominees are set for the general election, Texas Republicans are shifting their focus to defeating Democrats in November. The 2026 Republican Party of Texas State Convention runs through Saturday.

The cancellation comes as Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, the Republican candidate for U.S. Senate, prepares for a November showdown against Democrat James Talarico.

Controversial Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is challenging U.S. Sen. John Cornyn's reelection. The $100 million fight could have far-reaching implications for the GOP, and party control of the Senate.

The longtime state legislator, who announced in June he wasn’t seeking reelection, will serve as an assistant secretary of defense.

The Austin Democrat’s haul is the largest-ever sum for a Senate candidate — in any state — in the first quarter of an election year.

The influential Conservative Political Action Conference, or CPAC, is underway in Grapevine, Texas. While the annual event draws attendees and speakers from all over, a host of Texans — including Gov. Greg Abbott, U.S. Senate hopeful Ken Paxton and state Sen. Bryan Hughes — are scheduled to speak on Friday.

The 2026 Texas Senate primary set a record for being the most expensive Senate primary in American history. Where did all that money come from?

The day after the March 3 primary, President Donald Trump pledged to endorse either John Cornyn or Ken Paxton “soon,” and call on the other to drop out. He has yet to make an endorsement.
