Decision Desk HQ (DDHQ) has projected that Democrat James Talarico will win Texas’ U.S. Senate seat, defeating Republican Ken Paxton. The call marks what the report describes as the Democratic Party’s first major victory in the Lone Star State since 1988. The result is significant on two fronts: it gives Democrats a major win in a state seen as crucial in presidential politics, and it moves the party closer to reclaiming a Senate majority. Democrats need a net gain of four seats to take back control of the chamber. The report also said U.S. media projections showed Democratic wins in Senate races in North Carolina and South Carolina, with both states described as flipped races.
