“And in what is perhaps the most stunning political upset of the night, deep red Texas has turned blue, with the Democrat James Talarico defeating Republican Ken Paxton in the race for the U.S. Senate seat in the state. It's an historic breakthrough for Democrats, ending nearly four decades of Republican dominance in the state Senate elections and delivering another major blow to President Trump. The defeated Texas Attorney General has been addressing supporters. I love Texas. I'll always love Texas. We will still fight for this place. We will fight for our country. We've had a difficult night tonight across the country, but it's not over. So God bless you, and thank you.”
