BILLIONAIRE BATTLE EXPLODES IN TEXAS! TALARICO TARGETS MUSK

The Democratic Senate candidate is making wealthy donors a central issue in the final campaign stretch.

Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico used a San Antonio campaign appearance to criticize billionaire political spending, focusing particularly on Elon Musk’s financial support for Republican-aligned efforts. His message framed the election around political influence and ordinary voters. Republican Ken Paxton and his supporters have focused on mobilizing conservative voters in the tight contest.
