US Senate election in Texas: Talarico could take the seat from Republicans for the first time since 1988
In the Texas primary and US Senate election, Democrat James Talarico holds a small but steady lead over Republican Ken Paxton, according to polls. The campaign has become the most expensive in US history — more than half a billion dollars, with Elon Musk contributing over $170 million. A Democratic victory would end the party's more than 30-year losing streak in statewide elections.
