Get ready for the upcoming primary season with these key races to keep an eye on


Texas is gearing up for its primary season, with early voting starting on Feb. 20, 2024, for the March 5 election. The filing deadline for candidates has passed, setting the stage for what is expected to be a drama-filled campaign season. Top Republicans, including Governor Greg Abbott and Attorney General Ken Paxton, are backing primary challengers running against incumbents in the Legislature. There are competitive races, with veteran lawmakers, rural Republicans, and elected officials like those on the Court of Criminal Appeals, all facing challenges from Paxton and his allies. The Court of Criminal Appeals recently ruled against Paxton in a case regarding his ability to unilaterally prosecute voter fraud. As a result, Paxton is now required to get permission from local prosecutors before pursuing such cases. For more insight into the week’s political developments in Texas, an interview is available for listening. The article concludes by urging readers to consider making a donation to support the valuable reporting. Donations help fund the content on texasstandard.org and KUT.org.
