Cornyn and Paxton bury each other in negative ads as Senate GOP runoff enters final stretch
· KRGV (NBC 5)
In the final stretch of the Republican Senate runoff in Texas, incumbent Senator John Cornyn and Attorney General Ken Paxton are engaged in a fierce battle marked by negative advertising. Cornyn's campaign has significantly outspent Paxton's, with a ratio of over four to one, leading to numerous ads attacking Paxton's character and competence. Despite the financial disadvantage, Paxton's campaign has gained traction, with some internal polls showing him leading Cornyn. Both candidates are focusing on discrediting each other as they prepare for early voting, which begins Monday, while Texas Democrats watch closely, hoping to capitalize on the GOP conflict.
