Texas House Speaker Dade Phelan is facing a tough reelection campaign, with far-right conservatives and Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick, who has nicknamed him 'Failin'', opposing him. Patrick has accused Phelan of trying to 'fool' voters in House District 21. Phelan's campaign has responded with a TV and digital ad attacking Attorney General Ken Paxton, highlighting Paxton's alleged oath breach to his wife and God, and referencing a mistress allegation. Paxton, who has been impeached, has targeted Collin County Republicans who attempted his impeachment and his office has spent $700,000 in legal fees on a whistleblower lawsuit.
