U.S. Senate Races

Graham Platner, a leading Democratic candidate in Maine's Senate primary, has vowed to subpoena White House officials and seek impeachment of two Supreme Court justices.

Democrat James Talarico raised more campaign money in Q1 2026 than his Republican opponents in the Texas Senate race. According to reporting by the New York Times, Talarico's Q1 haul topped those of Sen. John Cornyn and Attorney General Ken Paxton. The piece said much of his money came from small-dollar donors and out-of-state supporters, giving his campaign a nationalized fundraising base. It also contrasted a split Republican field, noting Cornyn and Paxton were dividing GOP contributions and that cash-on-hand figures painted a different picture of short-term strength. The New York Times article included quotes from Talarico and Republican campaign officials disputing what the numbers mean for competitiveness.
