A University of Texas poll shows James Talarico, the Democratic candidate, leading Republican candidates John Cornyn and Ken Paxton in Texas's US Senate race. Talarico has gained momentum since winning the Democratic primary in March. He has raised tens of millions of dollars since January and is courting voters disillusioned with the GOP primary battle. Talarico is viewed favorably by roughly four in 10 voters, while Cornyn and Paxton have negative favorability ratings. Cornyn and Paxton have attacked Talarico, but mostly target each other, with Cornyn emphasizing corruption allegations against Paxton. No Democrat has won a statewide office in Texas since 1994.
