PAXTON MISCONDUCT MILESTONE: Conservative Group Rescinds Endorsement For Scandal Plagued Ken Paxton
AUSTIN, TX — One year ago, Ken Paxton hit a new personal low amongst his base as the conservative advocacy group Texas Values Action rescinded their endorsement of him after news broke of his divorce on “on biblical grounds,” saying they were “unsatisfied” with Paxton’s explanation of his morals.
Paxton's record of corruption and scandals, from his recent voter fraud allegations to him gallivanting across Europe with his mistress for the 4th of July, has alarmed GOP officials who say Paxton is “risking everybody else on the ballot.” This adds to weeks of lifelong Republicans declaring they will never vote for Paxton, saying he is “against what much of the Republican Party should stand for” and he “has more baggage than a 747.”
Texas Democratic Party Spokesperson Ryan Martin:
“One year later and Ken Paxton's corrupt values haven’t changed. Paxton flaunts how he got rich on a government salary, while abandoning the state for lavish vacations with his mistress and refusing to follow the same laws he’s meant to enforce. Texans are tired of out-of-touch politicians like Ken Paxton who rig the system for themselves instead of fighting for working families, and this November will be kicking him to the curb.”
