The Texas GOP Senate primary has intensified as former Attorney General Ken Paxton ramps up his challenge to Sen. John Cornyn and Rep. Wesley Hunt filed a police report alleging doxxing by a Cornyn campaign staffer. Hunt says Cornyn communications director Matt Mackowiak posted an unredacted image of his 2016 provisional ballot on X showing the last four digits of his Social Security number, driver’s license ID and home address; Harris County authorities confirmed a report was filed and plan to subpoena X for the deleted post, while Mackowiak says the image came from public records previously provided to local media and later unredacted by the Daily Mail.
