GOP Candidates Chip Roy and Mayes Middleton Advance to Runoff in Texas Attorney General Race
In the Texas Attorney General primary, both Republican candidates, U.S. Representative Chip Roy and State Senator Mayes Middleton, have advanced to a runoff. This election has garnered significant attention as it follows the controversial tenure of the previous Attorney General, Ken Paxton. Voter turnout for both the Republican and Democratic primaries shows a split among GOP voters, indicating a competitive race ahead. With endorsements and a three-candidate field in the Democratic primary, the stage is set for a potentially transformative election for Texas’ top legal office.
