Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is leading Republican Sen. John Cornyn by double digits in the 2026 Texas Senate race, according to a recent Republican primary poll.
Paxton is ahead of Cornyn by 16 percentage points — 56% to 40% — in a two-way poll commissioned by the Senate Leadership Fund (SLF), Punchbowl News first reported on Monday. Meanwhile, in a hypothetical three-way matchup with Republican Texas Rep. Wesley Hunt, who is reportedly considering entering the primary contest, Paxton notched 44% of the vote to Cornyn’s 34% and Hunt’s 19%.
SLF, a super PAC that supports Republicans, is backing Cornyn’s Senate reelection bid. Senate Majority Leader John Thune and National Republican Senatorial Committee chair Tim Scott have encouraged President Donald Trump to endorse Cornyn in the Senate GOP primary, CNN first reported in April. Trump has yet to make an endorsement in the contest.

Notice the usual RINOs and the RSC are worried Trump may endorse Paxton. Trump should do so, and the sooner the better.
I hope Paxton trounces Corn Pop.
hunt is the spoiler
watch thune and company dump money into hunt’s campaign
Now let’s get someone to take on Tillis.
Me too, Buh Bye Cornyn
Cornyn does the conservative act every 6 years when he is up for election.
Personally I don’t like endorsements.
Good candidates win elections not endorsements.
Paxton seems to be leading on likeability but more importantly on the issues.
If only the Republicans had more candidates this capable and competent!
How Cornyn has been re-elected for 2 decades is nothing but name recognition. He’s a snake.
Great news!
Ken Paxton is one awesome guy. The lefties and the righties are afraid of him. They’ve been trying to pull Trump crap on him all of the time. They’ve accused Paxton of everything they can think of. Texans won’t put up with that kind of crap.
This is the key to the RINO pitch: 'We'll stab you in the back.' Are they really that willing to lose the Senate? That will have to be Paxton's pitch. In the meantime, with China falling in line for lower tariffs, it'll be a hard sell that MAGA is really that bad.
What are the chances that Cornhole will do the honorable thing and retire?
Good News.
Don’t diss snakes, he is a pos.
Yep!
Now we need to watch for a primary candidate to “suddenly” pop up to split the vote ie Ross Perot.
The TX GOP-e is not going to relinquish its stupidity easily.
Can we find someone to primary Tillis in NC?
Of course he does. Most Right leaning voters hate RINOs like Cornyn.
We also need a guy to be leading Thom Tillis by double digits
“SLF, a super PAC that supports Republicans, is backing Cornyn’s Senate reelection bid.”
The Senate Leadership Fund: “The Senate Leadership Fund is a Republican super PAC that was established in 2015 by allies of Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell.”
Of course they would support Cornyn.
