Major Ken Paxton donor endorses James Talarico in Texas
The attorney shifted after meeting Talarico and said Paxton’s political and legal troubles changed his view, despite $646,107 in past support for a pro-Paxton PAC.
- On Wednesday, attorney Thomas J. Henry announced his endorsement of Democrat James Talarico, reversing his previous support for Republican Ken Paxton, to whom he had donated more than $600,000.
- Henry cited Paxton's legal troubles, including a 2023 impeachment and whistleblower lawsuits, as reasons for his shift; he sought a 'balanced, straightforward, and honest' alternative after meeting with Talarico.
- With early voting underway through October 30, recent polls show Talarico maintaining a narrow lead over Paxton in a race that has drawn record ad spending exceeding $442 million.
- The endorsement comes as the Senate race is rated a toss-up, with the outcome potentially determining which party controls the U.S. Senate during Trump's final two years in office.
- As voters head to polls on November 3, Libertarian candidate Ted Brown could play a spoiler role; analysts suggest he draws support from disaffected Republicans unwilling to back either major nominee.
