Texas Scorecard By Mattie Hayworth February 26, 2026
Anyone who has spent real time with my dad knows that the attacks bear no resemblance to the man they claim to describe.My dad is Ken Paxton, and as you may know, he’s running for the United States Senate. I’m not a political strategist or a pundit. I’m his daughter, and I know him better than almost anyone.
So when his opponent, unable to compete on record, on results, or on values, resorts to attacking my father’s character and personal life, I feel compelled to speak up. Not as a campaign surrogate. As his daughter.
Let me start with what everyone already knows: my dad’s record as Texas Attorney General is extraordinary. He sued the Biden administration over 100 times, fighting back against unconstitutional federal overreach.
He defended Texas’ pro-life laws all the way to the Supreme Court and won. He protected parental rights, secured our border, fought human trafficking, and stood firm against the radical gender ideology being pushed into our children’s classrooms and schools.
His opponents can dispute a lot of things, but they cannot dispute that. So instead, they stoop to ugly attacks on the man.
And that’s where I come in, because not everyone gets the privilege of knowing my dad the way I do.
Growing up, my dad was everything a father should be. Nobody worked harder. Nobody sacrificed more. Nobody showed up more consistently than him.
Go get ‘em, Dad. We love you, and we’re with you.
