Republicans are anxiously watching the closely contested Senate race in Texas. They are hopeful that former President Donald Trump’s political fundraising efforts can aid GOP nominee Ken Paxton.
On September 5, 2026, it was reported that Trump’s super PAC has committed a substantial $10 million for advertising in the Texas Senate race. This ad purchase marks the super PAC’s first major financial involvement in the November midterm elections.
The decision to channel significant resources into this particular race highlights the importance of Texas in the broader political landscape. The GOP is looking to strengthen its position amidst concerns about waning performance.
Both Trump and Ken Paxton have made public appearances together, such as the rally on October 22, 2022, in Robstown, Texas, signifying a strong political alliance.
