Cornyn claims Trump won't endorse in Texas Senate runoff

Both Cornyn and Paxton have been vying for the president’s endorsement since the race began last year. Trump told reporters last week that an endorsement was looming.

“I’ll make a decision,” Trump told reporters at the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool. “Maybe, relatively soon.”

Cornyn and Paxton have been locked in a tight runoff for the past two months.

Cornyn won 42% of the vote to Paxton’s 40.5% in the primary. Since neither candidate got more than 50%, the contest went to a runoff as required by Texas law. The winner will face Democratic Texas state Rep. James Talarico.
