CBS News • • nation
Key Points:
- Ken Paxton's campaign has canceled the planned Election Eve event at the Alamo, despite earlier announcements of the appearance.
- The candidate's schedule on Nov. 2 includes events in Conroe and Allen, which are too far from San Antonio to allow a stop at the Alamo that evening.
- The campaign has not provided any public explanation for the change or responded to media inquiries.
- Paxton's "Come and Take It" bus tour, named after a Texas Revolution slogan, was originally slated to end at the Alamo, a historic site where political events are prohibited.
- Paxton is facing Democrat James Talarico in the Senate race, with recent polls indicating a competitive contest in Texas, a state historically Republican in Senate elections.
