Read our Privacy noticeFox News host Sean Hannity refused to believe a recent poll from his own conservative network that puts progressive Democrat James Talarico slightly in front of Republican Ken Paxton in Texas’s highly competitive Senate race ahead of November’s midterms. “Did you read your own poll today where Talarico is beating Paxton?” Fox News’s poll found that 63 percent of moderate voters were leaning toward Talarico over Paxton. Although Republicans have asserted Talarico is radical, most respondents to the Fox News poll found that Talarico was “not very” or “not at all” extreme. A June New York Times/Siena College poll found both Talarico and Paxton at 47 percent.
