Trump Withholds Texas Senate Endorsement to Advance SAVE America Act in Senate President Donald Trump is strategically delaying his endorsement in the Texas Republican Senate primary between Sen. John Cornyn and Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton to exert pressure on GOP senators to pass the SAVE America Act. This legislation aims to impose stricter voter eligibility requirements, including proof of citizenship for voter registration, which Trump has declared his top legislative priority for 2026. Initially leaning toward endorsing Cornyn, Trump shifted after Paxton's public push for the bill caught his attention. During a speech to House Republicans, Trump dedicated significant time to urging swift action on the SAVE Act, emphasizing it must become law before he finalizes any endorsement. The bill faces hurdles in the Senate, where Republicans lack the 60 votes needed to overcome a filibuster, and altering Senate rules remains contentious. Senate Majority Leader John Thune and others express unease over linking the endorsement to the bill's fate, warning it may not benefit the party. Paxton has hinted at withdrawing if leadership commits to ending the filibuster or passing the act, while Trump posted on Truth Social demanding the primary end soon to focus on the Democratic opponent. This maneuver highlights Trump's influence within the GOP, using his endorsement power to drive his agenda amid growing party tensions over voting reforms. Republican leaders worry the delay could weaken their general election chances in Texas against Democrat James Talarico.

Texas GOP Senate Primary: Cornyn and Paxton Advance to May Runoff In the Texas Republican primary for U.S. Senate held on March 3, 2026, incumbent Senator John Cornyn and state Attorney General Ken Paxton advanced to a runoff election scheduled for May 26. Neither candidate secured the 50% threshold required to win outright, with Cornyn leading slightly in early results around 42.5% to Paxton's 40.8%, while Rep. Wesley Hunt finished third at about 13%. This outcome extends a highly contentious intra-party battle that has national implications, as Republicans worry about holding the seat amid President Trump's final term. Cornyn, seeking a fifth term after 35 years in Texas GOP politics, showed surprising resilience despite trailing in polls and facing Paxton, a MAGA-aligned figure with strong grassroots support and ties to Trump's election claims. National Republicans view Cornyn as the safer bet against a potential Democratic challenge in reliably red Texas, but the bruising runoff could weaken the winner. Cornyn's allies spent nearly $70 million to propel him forward, while Paxton rallied supporters by decrying 'Washington money' buying influence. Prediction markets had favored Paxton heavily pre-election, at 82% odds, but Cornyn's early vote strength signals his enduring appeal. Democrats, meanwhile, finalized their nominee with James Talarico defeating Jasmine Crockett, positioning them for a rare shot at flipping the seat unseen in nearly 40 years. The high-stakes showdown underscores GOP divisions between establishment and populist wings as midterms loom to shape Congress.

James Talarico Wins Texas Democratic Senate Primary, Faces Uncertain GOP Opponent in General Election Texas state Rep. James Talarico secured the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate after defeating U.S. Rep. Jasmine Crockett in a competitive primary on March 3, 2026. The race was delayed slightly due to voting issues in Dallas County, where a judge extended polling hours, but the Texas Supreme Court later invalidated late votes, prompting concerns about voter suppression affecting Black and Hispanic communities. Crockett conceded the next day, urging party unity. Talarico, known for his populist messaging, strong performance in white and Hispanic areas, and background as a Presbyterian seminarian, emphasized uniting voters across lines and criticizing both potential GOP opponents—Attorney General Ken Paxton for corruption and Sen. John Cornyn for donor influence. Democrats hoped to face the scandal-plagued Paxton, seen as vulnerable, but Cornyn performed better than expected, forcing a GOP runoff. This gives Talarico a head start in campaigning, though he still trails Cornyn in polls and faces challenges building support among Black voters amid primary tensions with racial undertones. The win has boosted Democratic optimism about flipping Texas blue for the first time in decades, with strong Latino turnout signaling dissatisfaction with Republicans and positioning Texas as a potential battleground for Senate control.

Black Democrats Criticize Crockett's Texas Senate Primary Loss Black Democratic strategists, lawmakers, and activists expressed frustration after Texas Democrats rejected Rep. Jasmine Crockett as their Senate nominee, opting instead for state Rep. James Talarico in the March 2026 primary. Critics pointed to Crockett's campaign shortcomings, including a weak ground game, inadequate infrastructure, overreliance on social media rather than TV ads, and failure to mobilize voters effectively in Texas's vast media markets. Despite endorsements from figures like former Vice President Kamala Harris, Crockett's two-term congressional tenure and viral fame did not translate into victory. Texas Rep. Jolanda Jones bluntly stated, 'This L is on her,' emphasizing Crockett's lack of political savvy. Strategists warned that choosing an untested white candidate over a prominent Black woman could alienate Black voters, especially women, who are key to Democratic turnout. Talarico, a seminary student and educator with national profile from appearances on Joe Rogan and Stephen Colbert, appealed broadly to progressives, independents, and disaffected Republicans. Crockett's team countered that they ran the most expensive Texas Democratic primary ever, faced heavy attack spending and voter suppression, and boosted first-time voters. After conceding, Crockett endorsed Talarico and called for party unity. The loss reignites debates on race, gender, and identity in Democratic primaries, with concerns it signals reluctance to elevate Black leadership despite their vital role in the party.

National Democrats Hesitate on Major Spending for Texas Senate Race National Democrats are grappling with whether to invest heavily in Texas to support James Talarico's U.S. Senate campaign amid recent primary successes. Talarico, a state representative who won the Democratic nomination, has sparked optimism after strong primary results, but party strategists question the high cost of competing in the historically Republican state. A Democratic consultant noted that $150 million for Texas might be better allocated to cheaper battlegrounds like Iowa, Montana, or Nebraska to secure House and Senate majorities. Senate Majority PAC emphasized that while paths to victory run through states like Ohio and North Carolina, Texas remains in play. Talarico's campaign has raised significant funds from grassroots donors, positioning him as a populist fighter against billionaire influence, though Republicans mock his chances and highlight his progressive stances on issues like borders and gender. Some GOP insiders privately acknowledge the risk, citing recent spending to protect incumbents. Schumer praised Talarico as a strong candidate following Tuesday's results. The debate underscores Democrats' strategic calculations ahead of the November general election, balancing ambition in red states against resource efficiency elsewhere.

Trump Signals Imminent Endorsement in Tight Texas Senate Runoff Between Cornyn and Paxton President Donald Trump announced on Truth Social that he will soon endorse one candidate in the Republican primary runoff for the U.S. Senate seat in Texas, pitting incumbent Sen. John Cornyn against Attorney General Ken Paxton. The two advanced to a May 26 runoff after finishing neck-and-neck in the March 3 primary, with Cornyn at 42% and Paxton at 41%. Trump emphasized the high stakes for the November general election against Democrat James Talarico, stating the intra-party fight 'cannot be allowed to go on any longer' for the good of the Republican Party and the country. He plans to urge the non-endorsed candidate to immediately drop out to unify Republicans and focus on defeating the opponent, whom he described as 'easy to beat.' Trump praised both candidates' primary performances but insisted the runoff winner must run a 'PERFECT' campaign, citing his strong track record of endorsements in Texas. Cornyn's allies, including Senate Majority Leader John Thune, have lobbied for his support, arguing Paxton's legal baggage could harm GOP chances in down-ballot races and require heavy spending. Paxton counters that his MAGA grassroots appeal would boost turnout among Trump's base. The race has already seen nearly $100 million in spending, dividing the Texas GOP. Paxton affirmed he would stay in even without Trump's backing. Republicans view the endorsement as key to avoiding a costly, divisive contest.

Texas Senate race pits Ken Paxton against John Cornyn in a high‑stakes GOP primary runoff Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and longtime U.S. Senator John Cornyn are advancing to a May 26 primary runoff for the Republican nomination in Texas’s Senate race, setting up a bitter intra‑party showdown that could reshape the state’s political landscape. The article details how the three‑way Republican contest, which also included Rep. Wesley Hunt, narrowed to a head‑to‑head battle between Cornyn, a four‑term incumbent associated with the GOP establishment, and Paxton, a Trump‑aligned MAGA figure with a history of legal and ethical controversies. Polling shows Paxton with a modest lead, but Cornyn’s allies argue his experience and national network make him better positioned to win both the runoff and a fall general election against a top‑tier Democrat. National Republicans are deeply divided over the race, with some warning a Paxton victory could open the door to Democrats in a traditionally red state, while grassroots MAGA activists see his candidacy as a chance to overthrow the party’s Washington class. The runoff highlights a broader struggle within the GOP over loyalty to Donald Trump, electability, and the balance of power between the establishment and insurgent wings of the party.

A Thread from Kat with HowdyPolitics saying, "Jasmine Crockett has conceded and says she remains committed to 'working to elect democrats up and down the ballot'" Me, too. Let's go, Texas. With a screenshot of the statement from Jasmine Crockett: This morning I called James and congratulated him on becoming the Senate nominee. Texas is primed to turn blue and we must remain united because this is bigger than any one person. This is about the future of all 30 million Texans and getting America back on track. With the primary behind us, Democrats must rally around our nominees and win. I'm committed to doing my part and will continue working to elect democrats up and down the ballot.
