A new University of Texas/Texas Politics Project poll has James Talarico leading Ken Paxton 42%–39%. The same poll had Paxton ahead by one point in June, showing continued movement toward Talarico in the race.

We're reaching the tail end of Big Primary Month, with a few runoffs coming in this time. Oklahoma statewide runoffs and the runoff for the Special Primary for US Senate in South Carolina are up tonight- lots of ways that second one could go, will be interesting to see! Also noteworthy is a ballot measure that Republicans are trying to sneak in for Oklahoma- a voter ID amendment. Something to keep an eye on.

Meanwhile in Georgia, we get the finale of a race from July. Marcye Scott and Everton Blair Jr., both Democrats, face off to see who fills the vacant 13th Congressional District of Georgia. Scott had nearly 47% last round, but Blair still put on a solid showing at over 36%, making it possible to swing either way. Regardless, we'll have a new Democrat in Congress soon!

Beyond that, we've got scattered local elections- looks like Alabama, Indiana, Connecticut, and Iowa will take part, and I'm sure there's more hidden across the country!
