Angela Paxton Stays Out of Texas Runoff

“When Angela Paxton, a conservative state senator in Texas, issued an endorsement list on Tuesday for the state’s primary runoffs, one race was conspicuously absent: the Senate contest that involves her estranged husband,” the New York Times reports.

“Ms. Paxton filed for divorce last year ‘on biblical grounds’ from Ken Paxton, the state’s attorney general. She had stayed neutral until the end in his bid to unseat Senator John Cornyn of Texas in the Republican primary.”
