More context

Republican Senate candidate Ken Paxton and Democratic candidate James Talarico focused their final campaign efforts on Houston as early voting in Texas drew to a close, Al Jazeera reported. Paxton cancelled an event in El Paso to concentrate on Harris County, the state’s most populous county. PBS reported that Paxton repeated dire warnings on Saturday, but did not specify them in the excerpt. The reports offer little detail about Talarico’s campaign activities beyond the focus on Houston.
