Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has declared his candidacy for the U.S. Senate, formally announcing his run during an appearance on Fox News’ “The Ingraham Angle” late Tuesday evening.
Paxton’s decision arrives at a pivotal moment after significant legal challenges have subsided. Previously shadowed by a protracted federal corruption investigation, the Attorney General now enters the race with a clearer path forward following the resolution of those concerns.
As this is a developing situation, further details are expected to emerge and will be reported as they become available.
Key Points:
- Ken Paxton seeks U.S. Senate seat
- Announcement made on Fox News
- Legal hurdles previously impacting his standing have been addressed
“This is a significant development in the Texas political landscape,” stated an unnamed source close to the campaign.
