Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton remains committed to the Republican Senate primary runoff against incumbent John Cornyn, as the March 17 deadline to withdraw passed without action from either candidate despite President Trump's earlier pledge to endorse one and urge the other to exit. Trader consensus prices "No" at 90.4%, reflecting Paxton's status as the 60% favorite on related prediction markets ahead of the May 26 runoff, strong base support, and absence of recent scandals or party pressures prompting a drop out. Cornyn holds a fundraising edge with over $8 million cash on hand versus Paxton's lesser total, but Trump's ongoing silence sustains uncertainty; late-breaking developments like a decisive endorsement or legal issues could still shift dynamics.
