Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton remains committed to his U.S. Senate bid, as the March 17 deadline to withdraw from the Republican primary runoff against incumbent Sen. John Cornyn passed without action, anchoring trader consensus at 90.4% against a dropout. Recent polls, including an early April survey showing Paxton leading 53%-37% among likely GOP primary voters, reflect surging momentum amid reports of establishment support shifting away from Cornyn. Despite personal challenges like State Sen. Angela Paxton's March 28 divorce filing alleging adultery and ongoing securities fraud trial, Paxton continues active campaigning with no official exit signals ahead of the May 26 runoff. Such resilience aligns with his prior Senate impeachment acquittal, underscoring low perceived risk of withdrawal.
