Today, Texas voters are choosing party nominees in runoff elections for several key statewide, congressional and local races for contests where no candidate won a majority in the March primary.
This runoff puts incumbent Senator John Cornyn against challenger AG Ken Paxton for the Texas Senate Republican race. President Trump has endorsed the challenger against Cornyn, and the old guard in the Senate are furious.

67% reporting, 62% – 37% in Paxton’s favor. If this keeps up it’s going to be an absolute blowout.
Cornyn is getting his ass wrecked.
I don’t see how Cornyn can overcome Paxton now, but maybe some Texas Treepers can tell us what population areas still haven’t come in.
see counties below 👇
Oops, water pipe broke, let’s stop counting….
Chip Roy, too. ; )
that’s why I like to call him Corn Hole
Woo hoo!
Maybe these a******* are getting the message? If this doesn’t do it, nothing civil will.
Captain Keshel:
This one is already done.
It’s Paxton.

If Paxton does win, then all the establishment cry babies will campaign for the democrat!
So the big question is will Senate Rinos fall in line to President Trumps agenda?
LOL. I know. Thought I’d ask anyways. So many corporate boards and NGOs to chair.
Al Green loses his primary.
GEICO is still hiring for a new caveman.
Caveman is right. Only thing is he is dumber and more backward than any caveman ever was.
Ah shucks, no more “It’s so easy even a caveman could vote for it”.
The Dem flake who wanted to put people in concentration camps is losing badly.
Who Dat?
Gallindo in the 35th House District.
Maureen Galindo. I guess Texas doesn’t want a sex therapist anti-semitic lunatic. Good news.

Paxton leading with 62% vs 38% for the RINO with 45% of votes reporting.
Does Texas have an open primary where Democrats can vote for a Republican?
Yes, if they didn’t vote in the initial primary they can cast their vote for either party in the runoff election or in the general if they have not established an affiliation.
Here’s from our Sec of State website:
“If a voter has not voted in a party primary or taken an oath of affiliation with a party this calendar year, they have not yet affiliated with any party. If a voter has not yet affiliated with a party, they are able to vote in either party’s primary election. However, if a voter votes in the primary of one party, they will only be able to vote in that party’s primary runoff election. (§§162.012, 162.013) After being affiliated with a party, a voter is not able to change or cancel their party affiliation until the end of the calendar year. (§162.010)“
If they didn’t vote in the original primary voting, then they can vote in either one, but if they voted in the Dem primary originally, they cannot crossover.
Yes
Mayes Middleton beating Chip Roy 58% to 42% for TX AG nomination.
Chips aRoy, one of the first “MAGA” congressman to throw in behind Ron DeSanctus.
The race won’t be called until the few counties in the MT time zone close at 9 pm EDT. But based on the numbers, it is over. Paxton in a landslide.
Two counties, including El Paso County.
South Western part of the state voted for Brandon Herrera in TX23
FYI: these are the libtard bastions we have to tolerate here.
These may go for Cornflake…
Dallas County: Dallas
Harris County : Houston
Bexar (pronounced like bear or bayer): San Antonio
Travis County: Austin, the world woketard capitol
Houston appears to be 65%/35% for Paxton so far with @70% of the vote in.
🙌
You need to add:
Tarrant County: Ft Worth (that just installed a Sharia Law favoring principle at one of it’s high schools)
El Paso County: El Paso (home of Beto O’Rourke)
Yeah, FW school board needs to be voted out.
The mayor is supposedly a Christian. If the stats are still correct, Texas leads the nation in new mosques being built. This could be ground zero for a huge confrontation. Bring in the Crusaders.
nah nah
nah nah nah nah
heyyyyyyy
GOODBYE
We voted about 6:45 pm. After I made my selection for PAXTON, I punched the air with my fist, and then I made a deep X in the air over Cornyn’s name!
Well, I just hope your “X” didn’t nullify your vote! You know, No stray marks, etc.! Only fill inside the circle. Ha.
Winning. God is winning. God is good. Truth and sanity marches on. I pray the margins in these races only get larger.
Amen, Doc
……and that they terrify the RINO’s to the point they get President Trump’s agenda done asap!
Under the leadership of President Trump, our power is in our numbers.
We only have two more years, so we must do this same thing in the midterms. We must own them!
Citizens Free Press claims that it is a blowout for Paxton:
https://citizenfreepress.com/
Polls close in two western counties in about 20 minutes.
I have waited years for a viable contender to vote for against Cornyn. Paxton is so much more than just that. Here’s hoping the early results hold up. What a day to be a Texan!
Same here! Also proud to no longer have Chip Roy as my Representative too! Life is good. 🙂
With 43% vote counted, Paxton up by 25+ points 😎
“…and the old guard in the Senate are furious.”
The next time someone like Massie, or Taylor Greene tries to divert our attention by yelling “Squirrel!…er…that is…’The Jews!’ or ‘Epstein!'” Just remember the above partial quote from Sundance’s take on things and ask yourself, “When did those two EVER upset the apple-cart for the Dems or the Establishment? [Yes, I repeat myself, but discussing the many shades of the Uni-Party is a pain, forgive me…]
If you’re upsetting all the right people, then you must be on to something good…
J
Here’s hoping Thune and his thugs become debilitated with a nasty case of the vapors.
Get ready for the concern trolls telling us that only Cornyn could beat Talarico in November. 🤡🤡🤡🤡
Folks…. Paxton is up by over 25 points with 43% of the vote in!
Oh… and this in a runoff election, with typically low turnout!
Also… Cornyn outspent Paxton about 9 to 1.
The only concern is the GOPe crowd totally supporting Talarico in November.
Even then, not gonna happen IMHO!
Meanwhile Middleton smoking Roy, and
Cornyn couldn’t even beat Paxton, how could he win over Talarico?
George Bush will now endorse Paxton to help the democrat.
The Bush Clan was the group that tried to railroad Paxton but failed. I think informed Texans would see through that charade and Paxton would definitely reject such an endorsement.
Someone better check on John Thune.
I wonder if he has any regrets……
And glitch Mitch.
No, he’s got his eyes on revenge!
Hope he’s checking ads for a respirator. No one in the Senate is worse than Thune, not even his mentor. All the way from 2017 to 2020 to now these thugs have done nothing but steal from we the people.
Yep, Thune is worse because he has decades of life left. Mitch will be gone soon.
Probably No Regerts too.
Steve is showing county results on Agenda Free TV. Cornyn is really losing!
63/37 Paxton/Cornyn still holding at 55% in.
Same at 60% in.
Keep in mind that this is an ESTABLISHMENT INCUMBENT getting beat.
A too rare event. But wonderful 😎
The only thing a RINO fears is a credible primary opponent.
When asked if he would vote for Paxton if Paxton won, Cornyn said, “Hell, no!”
Tomorrow I hope someone asks him, “Given that over 60% of GOP voters support Paxton, will you now support him?”
Nothing quite like a MAGA-Midterm Arse whipping!!
Meanwhile, Caveman Al Green has lost to another Dem.
Disliked Al Green immensely
He was foul. Very, very foul.
“Tastes like burnt hair and mango chutney”
(another excellent Geico commercial. Raccoons) 😂
Someone that ugly will end up as a regular on The View. It’s the only way to make those hags look (cough cough) good.
What is it with the “establishment?”.They do nothing and expect to be re-elected! Rino’s know, if it can happen to Cornyn, it can happen to anyone of them! No Safe Act people! Pass it, or you’re next!!!
Because for years they did this s*** and we kept voting for them.
Now, finally, we have a leader who has been waking up all the people who kept voting for incumbents.
“… the old guard in the Senate are furious.”
GOOD! Now if we can get rid of Thune and his backstabbing bunch of RINO’s….
Bo French up 53/47 vs. Jim Wright for RR commissioner.
Western counties closing in two minutes. Wait for DDHQ immediate call.

While we’re on the topic of Texas isn’t it nice to know that Al Green lost his run-off and isn’t even on today’s ballot?
AP just called it for Paxton 🤗
My body received healing when I saw that the piece of human feces named Al Green lost in the primary. Thank you, Lord.
So happy. Cigar + Bourbon thank you very much
Called for Paxton!!!
Paxton won by 200,000 votes! (so far)
🚨 RACE CALL: Ken Paxton, endorsed by President Trump, has defeated incumbent Sen. John Cornyn in the Texas GOP Senate runoff.
Cornyn becomes the first Texas Republican senator ever to lose his party’s nomination.

Republican strategist Mehek Cooke went on Daily Signal today to discuss the Texas Senate primary between Ken Paxton and John Cornyn, and she delivered the cleanest summary of where MAGA voters actually are in 2026.
Her central point: 𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘪𝘴 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘢 𝘛𝘳𝘶𝘮𝘱 𝘭𝘰𝘺𝘢𝘭𝘵𝘺 𝘵𝘦𝘴𝘵. 𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘪𝘴 𝘢 𝘷𝘰𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘭𝘰𝘺𝘢𝘭𝘵𝘺 𝘵𝘦𝘴𝘵.

Cont and video….
PS to Thomas Massie…
You see. It is not about Epstein.
And, it isn’t about the money. Paxton won while being outspent 9 to 1.
I wonder what Paxton plans to do for Texas and the US with his remaining months as Texas Attorney General.
Thune can smell the doom.
Paxton destroyed Cornyn……totally awesome.
Well I’ll Be…….
The talking heads are sploding.
They are actually celebrating that the outgoing rinos are now free to attack the President for the next 7 months.
Yeah!
What do they think has been happening since 2015?
If the forehead believed that transrico could win, he wouldn’t have to keep lying.
That pic of Cornyn at the top portrays a guy almost as old and out of it as Old Joe. Time to go!
I did not think I would be watching pornography tonight but, in fact, I saw John getting Cornyn-holed.
“Oh, boy! Is this great!” – Flounder
Now will Cornyn be bitter or gracious in his concession speech?
What do you think???
What a great day for Texas!!! Woohoo!
I hope Thune’s mommy has a bottle of warm milk ready and waiting for him!
I think Trump’s endorsement helped, but it was such a blowout, Paxton would have won anyway, even if Trump had stayed out of the race.
Looks like Paxton wins. Trump shows that he has the power to primary certain Republicans. Now it is the question of how much it will motivate the Rinos to fall into line?
