The U.S. Chamber of Commerce has endorsed Texas Senator Ted Cruz over his challenger Colin Allred in the state's upcoming race, a potential boost as polls show him solidifying his lead.
While the decision might not be particularly surprising, as the group tends to back Republican candidates, Allred was among the few Democrats who had been endorsed in previous races. It was the case in 2020 and 2022, when he ended up beating Republicans Genevieve Collins and Antonio Swad, respectively.
