Senate Republicans Finally Mobilize with Big Money for Ken Paxton in Texas
Texas PAC has launched a $32 million broadcast buy as Republicans move to narrow Ken Paxton’s polling and spending deficit.
- On Friday, Senate Leadership Fund launched its first general-election ad buy supporting Republican nominee Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton in the Texas Senate race.
- Following Paxton's primary victory and recent polling trailing Democrat James Talarico, Senate Republicans reversed their previous reluctance to support the attorney general after backing Senator John Cornyn.
- Texas PAC purchased $32 million in broadcast ads across Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, San Antonio and Austin, while Trump-aligned MAGA Inc. invested $10 million over the weekend.
- Alongside spending from Elon Musk's PAC, these massive investments bring the race closer to parity after Talarico dominated the airwaves with significant financial advantages.
- Senate Majority Leader John Thune and other GOP leaders now prioritize Texas, a longtime GOP bastion rarely concerning Washington leadership, signaling the party's defensive posture nationally.
