[00:00:00]Cornyn's get town instead of full.

[00:00:02]>> There are a few sure things about the Cornyn-Paxton race.

[00:00:06]>> Because John Cornyn [music] is on spring break. They had a field day with AI.

[00:00:11]Crooked Ken is a mortal threat to the America First agenda. And it got ugly.

[00:00:17]We know Ken Paxton cheats. [music] Just ask the mother of his children. And expensive. Let's give John Cornyn a permanent vacation. An estimated $135 million spent on these campaigns.

[00:00:31]Senator Cornyn came in first in the March primary, but then Paxton got the coveted endorsement they each wanted most.

[00:00:38]>> Trump gives [music] his complete and total endorsement to America First Patriot Ken Paxton. Leaving Republicans choosing sides over who best to face off against Democratic candidate James Talarico. In the many years that I have known Ken Paxton, he has been on the front lines to every single fight that has hit our state. To call Paxton ethically challenged is to call Jeffrey Dahmer suffering from an eating disorder. This guy is an empty suit and will do us no service by being in the US Congress.

[00:01:10]>> Not as much money spent, but former colleagues also turned rivals in the House District 33 runoff race between Democrats Julie Johnson and Colin Allred. At one point in time they supported each other, but facing off in a district redrawn by Texas Republicans, their tunes changed evident in their interviews with Jason Whitely on Inside Texas Politics. I did not expect that she was going to get in the office and trade $4 million worth of stock. As I've dug into his record, I realized he didn't really do much.

[00:01:40]>> Voters decide these races and 36 more party nomination contests across Texas on Tuesday. In Dallas, I'm Kevin Reese.
