Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton faced a direct personal question during a town hall call on Monday, according to Mediaite. In the Monday town hall, video from one Instagram user shows a caller on the line told him, “Nice to meet you,” before asking, “I’m just wondering – why did you cheat on your wife?”
Paxton is running for U.S. Senate against Texas state Rep. James Talarico, a Democrat. Paxton has President Donald Trump‘s endorsement, which he received instead of longtime Sen. John Cornyn. Even with that support, his campaign has dealt with several controversies, including claims of voter fraud and questions about a plea deal his office made with a man accused of child sex abuse. His marriage has also become a public issue during the campaign.
