Ken Paxton's Senate loss could spark chaos in Texas
Original: Why top Texas election denier Ken Paxton could cause chaos if he loses his Senate race
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, a prominent promoter of false 2020 election fraud claims, is running for the US Senate. Analysts warn that if he loses, he could refuse to accept the result and challenge the outcome, given his record of rejecting election defeats. Observers say the race tests whether election denial remains a winning strategy in Republican primaries, and a loss by Paxton could still fuel unfounded fraud claims in Texas politics.
Why now: Paxton's Senate race is a high-profile test of election denial politics and his refusal to concede could create a contested outcome in Texas.
