The Texas Senate race between incumbent Senator John Cornyn and Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has intensified amid allegations concerning Paxton’s personal conduct. Cornyn’s campaign has filed a public records request<\/a> seeking documents<\/a> to determine if Paxton used taxpayer funds for trips related to an alleged extramarital affair. The request highlights reports that Paxton traveled extensively to meet a woman named Tracy Duhon, with whom he is said to have had an affair since March 2024. This progress brings renewed scrutiny to Paxton, who has previously faced adultery accusations during his 2023 impeachment trial-in which he was acquitted.<\/p>\n

Paxton’s former wife, Angela Paxton, filed for divorce in July 2024, shortly after the affair began. Both candidates emphasize their support for former President Donald Trump, who has yet to endorse either. Polling shows a close race between the two Republican candidates as they vie to secure the Senate seat, with recent surveys indicating a tight contest.The public records request and ensuing media coverage mark an escalation in efforts by Cornyn’s campaign to challenge Paxton’s character ahead of the primary election.
