Texas Senate race: Democrat Talarico wins; GOP’s Cornyn, Paxton in run-off

AI Summary
In the Texas Senate race, Democrat James Talarico won the primary, defeating States Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett. The Republican primary did not produce a clear winner, resulting in a May run-off election between incumbent Senator John Cornyn and Attorney General Ken Paxton. The winner of the Republican run-off will face Talarico in the general election. Texas held its primary elections on Tuesday, along with North Carolina and Arkansas, as part of the midterm elections that will determine control of Congress. Crockett's campaign indicated plans to sue over alleged voting irregularities in Dallas. Cornyn is seeking a fifth term but faces a challenge from Paxton, potentially influenced by a possible endorsement from Donald Trump.
