President Donald Trump returned to Texas on Tuesday in a final attempt to bolster Senate candidate Ken Paxton, whose close race in a normally reliable conservative state has Republicans worried about losing control of the chamber.

Trump sought to cast the Democratic challenger James Talarico as too far left for voters and at the same time pleaded for patience over high energy prices, fueled in part by the war in Iran.

High prices that have strained household budgets have become the dominant issue in the election, weighing down Republican candidates in red states such as Texas.

With one week to go control of the Senate is still up for grabs.

Democrats have 47 Senate seats and need a net gain of four to win a majority. That seemed like a longshot after devastating 2024 election losses, but is now more realistic with President Donald Trump’s poor approval rating weighing down Republican candidates.

Democrats need to flip at least two seats in states that favored Trump by double digits in 2024. The last time Democrats won a net gain of four Senate seats was 2008.

Democratic nominee for Georgia governor Keisha Lance Bottoms says she is calling for a pause on new data center construction in the state while officials assess the industry’s impact. Speaking to Joe Mathieu and Kailey Leinz on Bloomberg Balance of Power, Bottoms says the pause could last six months or longer, citing questions about strain on the electric grid, costs to ratepayers and impacts on the water supply.
