Texas Senate candidate James Talarico posted a video calling Ken Paxton to challenge him to a Fox News debate. The call went to voicemail; Talarico said he had accepted four local TV debates and had not heard from Paxton, with voting less than a month away.
Talarico suggested Bret Baier as moderator and said both candidates could take questions. Paxton had previously pledged to debate Talarico, though the report said his campaign appeared slow to arrange one.
Talarico and Paxton are the Democratic and Republican nominees seeking to succeed Sen. John Cornyn. Paxton won the Republican primary runoff after President Donald Trump endorsed him; the article said most polls showed Talarico with a slight lead.
