Musk’s PAC Steps In to Boost Paxton in Texas Senate Race
- Elon Musk's America PAC disclosed spending nearly $250,000 to aid Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton this week, signaling a significant reengagement in Republican midterm efforts to protect the Senate majority.
- Paxton's campaign faces a deep financial deficit against Democratic rival James Talarico, prompting national GOP leaders to seek support from Musk and other wealthy donors to bolster the attorney general's standing.
- Republican outside groups are spending a combined $11 million on advertising this week, swamping the roughly $4 million from Talarico's campaign; this contrasts sharply with August when Democrats spent $13.3 million to Republicans' $4.7 million.
- Senate Majority Leader John Thune urged President Donald Trump earlier this week to deploy some of the roughly $400 million in his MAGA Inc. war chest to support Paxton, as Trump indicated plans to direct reserves to 'people that I think are good Republicans.'
- The committee disclosed another $2.9 million on Friday night alone for midterm races, with PAC officials stating they coordinate with the wider Republican apparatus to shape the election outcome.
