Musk endorses Paxton in Texas Senate race

What the coverage shows

The coverage converges on a very close Texas Senate race between James Talarico and Ken Paxton, with CBS News twice foregrounding poll evidence and turnout or a near tie. The Los Angeles Times emphasizes the race’s intensity and spending, while The New York Times focuses on Tarrant County as a battleground. Other outlets split off into side angles: Fox News and CNN center Bernie Sanders rallies, The Hill highlights Elon Musk’s endorsement of Paxton, and Newsweek is alone in framing Sanders as potentially hurting Talarico and Gina Hinojosa.
