CANDIDATE A
Ken Paxton
CANDIDATE B
James Talarico

Who is in this race?

Paxton is Texas's attorney general. Talarico serves in the Texas House.

What does the archive look at?

The archive looks at public service, health care, and Paxton's legal record.

Where does campaign money come from?

The archive reports no AIPAC money for either person in the records it checked. A person's views are not the same as campaign donations.

What still needs checking?

Check the latest filings and the outcome of any legal matter before stating a final result.

Five things to look at

  1. Health care
  2. Jobs and money
  3. Safety and fairness
  4. War and military spending
  5. Children and families

Ask the same questions about both people. Look at what they did, not just what they said.

What do these words mean?

PAC: A group that raises or spends money in politics.

Outside spending: Money a group spends to help or oppose a candidate. It is not always a gift to the campaign.

Pending: We still need to check.

Flag: Something the archive asks readers to look at more closely. A flag is not proof of wrongdoing.
