Texas Rep. Dan Crenshaw owes his defeat in this week's Republican primary to a billionaire megadonor who was hellbent on ending Crenshaw's career, sources tell Axios. Why it matters: Texas banker Robert Marling 's role in funding an anti-Crenshaw advertising blitz starkly illustrates how a lone billionaire can banish a member of Congress. - In this case, Marling's clout meant Crenshaw was the first House incumbent to be ousted in 2026. Crenshaw lost to Texas state Rep. Steve Toth , a hard-line conservative who doesn't have Crenshaw's independent streak. Zoom out: Marling donated $675,000 in the GOP primary, accounting for roughly two-thirds of the amount spent by a super PAC opposed to Crenshaw. - Marling's contributions bankrolled a…

A dozen of them have been out-raised by their rivals, as Axios reported on Tuesday . - There is less of a concerted effort to unseat incumbent Republicans, but mid-cycle redistricting and anti-endorsements from President Trump are keeping things interesting. Zoom in:…
The victory by Steve Toth, a hard-line Texas state representative, underscored how even a conservative House member could lose Republican voters by breaking with President Trump.
Voters are on the verge of sending multiple House incumbents packing but gave four-term Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) hope that he can defeat Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton in a runoff in May. Why it matters: The GOP's worst nightmare , in which Paxton led Cornyn or even defeated him outright Tuesday in the first primary elections of the 2026 midterms, didn't happen. - National Republicans are concerned that Paxton, a conservative firebrand, could lose in the general election — or at least force them to spend money on a red state. - Texas' Democratic Senate primary has its own controversy: Rep. Jasmine Crockett claimed voters were "disenfranchised" and vowed to sue over confusion on polling places in Dallas County. She trailed state…
