On this week’s Party Politics, co-hosts Brandon Rottinghaus and Jeronimo Cortina examine President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance’s visit to Texas and the Republican effort to appeal to Latino voters. The hosts also discuss the Trump administration's taxpayer-funded campaign advertising and the role of political messaging heading into the midterms.
The U.S. Senate race between Republican Ken Paxton and Democrat James Talarico gets a closer look, including their debate over the federal gas tax, Paxton’s support of super PACs and the broader dynamics of the race.
The discussion also turns to the Texas governor’s race, including Republican Gov. Greg Abbott and Democratic candidate Gina Hinojosa. Rottinghaus and Cortina examine Abbott’s recent diesel disaster declaration and what it could mean politically and economically.
Finally, the hosts look at divisions within the Democratic Party and a recently overturned voter fraud case, adding another layer to the ongoing debate over elections and voting in Texas.
As the midterms draw closer, Party Politics examines the candidates, campaigns and political battles shaping the final march to Election Day in Texas.NATIONAL TOPIC:Trump administration's taxpayer funded ad campaigns.TEXAS TOPICS:Donald Trump and JD Vance visit TexasJD Vance hoping to win Latino votes with visit to the Valley.Ken Paxton caught on microphone saying midterm convention did not help his campaign.Paxton and Talarico share positions on federal gas tax.Ken Paxton expresses joy over super PAC’s.Texas Governor’s race.Governor Greg Abbott issues disaster declaration over diesel prices.Divide in the Democratic PartyRuling overturned in Texas voter fraud case.In addition to the YouTube version, you can also enjoy Party Politics on television every Friday night at 8:00pm on Houston Public Media TV-8 (PBS), or listen to the radio broadcast every Friday at 7:30pm on News 88.7.
