Ken Paxton has been indicted, impeached, and investigated by the feds — and he just won the GOP primary for U.S. Senate. The Texas attorney general has spent 11 years in office, racking up a slew of controversies.

Now he's at the top of the ballot facing State Rep. James Talarico. Democrats are betting that Paxton's legal baggage, along with national backlash against President Trump, could produce the first Democratic U.S. Senate win in Texas since 1988.
