Story summary

In the 2026 Texas midterm elections on November 7, James Talarico, a Democrat and former teacher, defeated Republican incumbent Ken Paxton to become the first Democrat elected to the U.S. Senate from Texas since 1988. The race was closely watched as it could determine which party holds a majority in the Senate for the remainder of Donald Trump’s presidency. Talarico campaigned on issues like voting rights and healthcare, while Paxton, facing multiple scandals including corruption charges, received significant funding from Elon Musk's political action committee. Despite initial hopes that Republican candidate Paxton might pull off an upset, Talarico won decisively, marking a historic shift in Texas politics.
