Texas Republican primary shows MAGA isn't always a gimme
It seems like all eyes were on Texas' primaries on March 3, and as results started rolling in, one thing was clear: Republican and Democratic voters are torn on what they want for their respective parties.
For Republicans, neither incumbent U.S. Sen. John Cornyn nor rival Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton reached the 50% threshold, so the two are heading to a runoff. That election will be held on May 26.
There were a few more notable GOP races: Texas Gov. Greg Abbott won his Republican primary handily, and I predict he will ultimately beatDemocratic challenger Gina Hinojosa in November.
In what appears to be headed toward an upset, incumbent U.S. Rep. Dan Crenshaw, the Navy SEAL turned U.S. congressman, trails his challenger, Steve Toth, in House District 2.
Meanwhile, the Democratic Senate primary between state Rep. James Talarico and U.S. Rep. Jasmine Crockett is still too close to call. It will be so contested that Crockett has already threatened to sue after some voting confusion in Dallas County.
What we saw in Texas were........
