Paxton opens up large lead after early voting
By Bill Conrad, bconrad@starlocalnews.com, @Bill_PlanoStar on Twitter
The next Texas senator in District 8 will likely be McKinney Republican Ken Paxton.
The current District 70 representative, Paxton received 65.7 percent of the votes during the two-week early voting period. Democratic challenger Jack Ternan received 31.7 percent of the vote, while Libertarian Ed Kless received 2.6 percent.
With 49 percent of the county's registered voters casting a ballot during early voting, it will be nearly impossible for Ternan to make up the difference and win the election.
