As Tim mentioned this morning, today is the last day to vote in the primary runoff elections. If you are like me, you’re going to stop on your way home and do this because doing your civic duty is super important.
About an hour ago, state Sen. Angela Paxton, whose district is in Collin County, announced her endorsements in key GOP races, including Mayes Middleton for Attorney General, incumbent Jim Wright for Railroad Commissioner (over Bo French, saucy!), and Thomas Smith for Texas Court of Criminal Appeals Place 3. She did not endorse anyone in the GOP Senate race, where incumbent John Cornyn (who is notably bad at brisket) is facing off against her soon-to-be ex-husband, Ken Paxton, whom she is divorcing.
Today is Election Day for the Texas runoff elections, and your voice matters! Please join me in voting for:✔️ Mayes Middleton for Attorney General✔️ Jim Wright for Railroad Commissioner✔️ Thomas Smith for Texas Court of Criminal Appeals – Place 3Finding your polling…
