Houston Public Media: Sen. John Cornyn and Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton made their final Houston-area campaign swings this week during early voting for their Republican primary runoff election for the U.S. Senate, with Election Day scheduled for next Tuesday, May 26. Both visits followed swiftly on President Donald Trump’s endorsement of Paxton over Cornyn on Tuesday. Cornyn told the Houston Association of Realtors on Thursday morning that he remains the Republicans’ best chance to beat Austin state Rep. James Talarico, the Democratic nominee, in November’s general election…. The attorney general highlighted Trump’s recent endorsement of him. “I have to say, it was pretty amazing,” Paxton said at his Katy event. “I always told people … whenever I’m around [Trump], good things happen. Good things happen to me, and good things happen for Texas” (HPM).
