Hunt Challenges Cornyn, Paxton in Texas Senate Race

Republican Rep. Wesley Hunt has entered the Texas Senate race, challenging incumbent John Cornyn and Attorney General Ken Paxton. Hunt aims to offer a "viable alternative" to Texas Republicans, arguing that the incumbent and Paxton are divisive figures. Despite opposition from Senate GOP leadership who view his candidacy as a "vanity project," Hunt insists he can unite the party and secure a crucial Senate seat. His entry intensifies the already contentious primary, with significant advertising spending by Hunt and Cornyn campaigns.
