得克萨斯州国务卿表示，该州3月3日初选前夕的提前投票将于2月17日（周二）至2月27日（周五）进行。
作为全国关注的焦点，孤星之州的共和党和民主党美国参议院初选备受瞩目，共和党欲继续保持参议院多数席位。
现任共和党参议员约翰·科恩（John Cornyn）面临包括德克萨斯州司法部长肯·帕克斯顿（Ken Paxton）和美国众议员韦斯利·亨特（Wesley Hunt）等知名人士在内的初选挑战者。

科恩已在参议院任职超过20年——他于2002年底就职。
民主党初选中的主要竞争者是美国众议员贾丝明·克罗克特（Jasmine Crockett）和德克萨斯州众议员詹姆斯·塔拉利科（James Talarico）。

“当人们不确定亲人是否会因移民和海关执法局（ICE）的行动消失而无法回家，不确定爱泼斯坦案中的卑劣行径是否会被问责，不确定自己是否要在房租、医疗或食物之间做出选择……有人却建议我们‘继续按常规搞政治’……正是这种想法把我们带到了今天这个地步。”克罗克特周一在X平台（原推特）上发文称。
“明天是提前投票的第一天，是时候让民众的声音被响亮而清晰地听见了！ ”她在推文中宣称。

Early voting ahead of Texas’ March 3 primary contests runs from Tuesday, Feb. 17 through Friday, Feb. 27, according to the Texas secretary of state.
The Lone Star State’s Republican and Democratic U.S. Senate primaries are being watched nationally, as the GOP seeks to cling to its majority in the chamber.
Incumbent Republican Sen. John Cornyn is facing primary challengers, including notable figures like Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and U.S. Rep. Wesley Hunt.

Cornyn has served in the U.S. Senate for more than two decades — he took office in late 2002.
The top contenders in the Democratic primary are U.S. Rep. Jasmine Crockett and Texas state Rep. James Talarico.

“While people don’t know if their loved ones will come home because they’ve been disappeared by ICE or if there will be accountability for the despicable things in the Epstein files or if they will be choosing between rent, healthcare, or food… some would suggest let’s just do politics as usual… THAT is the exact thinking that got us here,” Crockett wrote in a Monday post on X.

“Tomorrow is the first day of early voting, It’s time for the people to be heard, loudly & clearly!” she declared in the post.
