Paxton, Talarico locked in dead heat for Texas Senate: Poll
Recent polls show Paxton at 47% and Talarico at 46%, with multiple surveys falling within each poll’s margin of error.
- An Emerson College Polling/Nexstar Media survey released Thursday shows the Texas U.S. Senate race in a dead heat, with Republican Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton at 47% and Democrat James Talarico at 46%.

- Sen. John Cornyn continues to criticize Paxton and has not publicly endorsed the Republican nominee for his U.S. Senate seat, exposing internal party fractures.
- With early voting beginning Oct. 19, both campaigns mobilize voters as the race remains statistically tied, though recent polls show varying results within margins of error.
