Democrat James Talarico has scripted a historic political victory in Texas, defeating Republican Ken Paxton in the US Senate race and ending his party's decades-long struggle to win a Senate seat in the traditionally Republican state. The 37-year-old's stunning victory marks a major setback for President Donald Trump, whose endorsement of Paxton failed to protect the Republican stronghold. According to media projections, Talarico has secured the Texas Senate seat previously held by Republican John Cornyn. He will become the first Democrat elected to the US Senate from Texas since 1988, ending a 38-year drought for the party in one of America's most important Republican bastions.
