Angela Paxton Urges Voters to Support the Republican Ticket

October 4, 2026

Texas state Sen. Angela Paxton is urging voters to support the Republican ticket in a new campaign advertisement. She says the election is about helping the full Republican slate win, rather than focusing on individual candidates. The ad does not name her estranged husband, Ken Paxton, who is the Republican nominee for the U.S. Senate, but its message signals her support in his race against Democrat James Talarico.

Context: The Texas Tribune reported that the advertisement is funded by Texas PAC, a super PAC affiliated with Senate Republican leadership that has spent more than $126 million supporting Ken Paxton’s campaign. The statements in the advertisement are political advocacy; they do not establish independent facts about the candidates or the race.
