TX-SEN: Wesley Hunt's Texas Senate campaign helps John Cornyn, poll finds

For Texas Sen. John Cornyn, the more the merrier.

Despite the entry of Rep. Wesley Hunt into Texas’ ferocious GOP Senate primary, a new poll from a pro-Cornyn super PAC obtained by POLITICO shows the four-term incumbent Republican in the lead.

The poll was conducted by Texans for a Conservative Majority in the days immediately prior to Hunt announcing that he would turn the Senate between Cornyn and Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton into a three-way contest.

It shows Cornyn with the support of 33 percent of Texas Republican primary voters, followed by Paxton at 28 percent and Hunt at 21 percent. Still undecided are 18 percent of primary voters.
