Who is the more conservative candidate in Texas? Hunt or Paxton?

I haven’t been keeping up, I know that the Bushes tried to destroy Paxton, but not sure what Hunts angle is. Looks like he out performs Paxton by a point versus Crockett

I’m not from Texas so I don’t know much about either. Both would be miles better than any Democrat.

Not as familiar with Hunt as I should be but as of now I prefer he wins out and Paxton stays in the loop for Governor. Job one is Cornyn the rino is gone.

Cornyn. That is unless your definition of conservative is more government. Also if you want to give the dems another senate seat get crazy and nominate Paxton or Hunt. See how bad candidates worked in the general election for Georgia.

I highly doubt Crockett would beat any Republican on the ticket. She leads in that primary.

Dude, you live here. Hunt and all of his siblings were West Pointers, which means momma didn't raise no fools. He puts out a lot of interviews, including with Jocko Podcast 504.
I don't hate Paxton at all, but getting someone young, firey, and principled, especially to drive a nail into the race issue (yes, I understand I'm using race the same way libs do in order to torpedo their arguments) will be advantageous. What is O'Rourke's plan against Paxton? Everything they've done for decades. What is O'Rourke's plan against Hunt. Confusion and failure.

Paxton is filth.
While possibly true, he didn't take money from AIPAC, based on my limited research, while Hunt has. I'll take filth over a Israel First candidate.

Hunt is getting bigly negative ads running against him. I’ve seen two negative Paxton ones calling him a loser
Chip Roy is running for AG and he has an ad out that he and Trump are bff. It’s hilarious

Hunt doesn’t stand a chance. He was put in there by the Rinos to take enough votes away from Paxton so that Cornyn can weasel back in.

You're getting those because of your algorithm, I haven't seen any of them. But I've actually listened to Hunt, repeatedly, and haven't detected anything that wouldn't make me vote for him. Paxton is trying, and I wouldn't have a problem with either one winning.
Why are you driven by ads, instead of listening to interviews with each? You can listen to Hunt on Rogan, Jocko, and myriad other places, but you rely on ads? The Dallas Express interviewed both here, why don't you listen to it, instead of ads? Are you the (R) version of people that vote for Jasmine Crockett because she's on TV a lot?

On a percentage scale:
Paxton: 80-90% Conservative
Hunt: 75-85% Conservative
Cornyn: 35-45% Conservative
Paxton is a dirtbag. But he's one of us (conservatives), so he's our dirtbag. Whereas Cornyn is a dirtbag, but not one of ours.

Paxtons probably the most conservative but he’s also the most corrupt. Dudes a criminal. I actually hope he wins so he goes and fricks around at the federal level and finally bites off more than he can chew. It’s an ideal scenario because we get his voting record for a few years then he can go to jail where he belongs.

Bingo. I’m voting Paxton

They’re both awful for different reasons

Paxton is a proven entity. May be a shitty person, don't care. He continually has been shown to be disruptive and play lawfare on behalf of the issues I support. This is an easy vote for Paxton here.

Cornyn and Bill Cassidy won’t even make the runoffs as incumbents
