On the issues: Q&A with the Republicans running for Texas attorney general

This is one of a four-part series of surveys featuring candidates in the Republican and Democratic primaries for U.S. Senate and attorney general. Read the survey with Democratic attorney general candidates here. See all of our resources for voting in the Texas primaries here.

Attorney General Ken Paxton’s decision to run for U.S. Senate set off an expensive and competitive race to fill one of the state’s most powerful posts. 

Four Republicans are seeking the nomination in the March 3 primary, a contest that will be settled in a May runoff if nobody clears 50% of the vote. The winner will take on the Democratic nominee in November and look to continue the GOP’s three-decade winning streak in Texas statewide elections.
