Ken Paxton, the Texas attorney general running for Senate, met with supporters at a barbecue restaurant in Abilene—and got only a smattering of polite applause and unenthusiastic cheers from a small crowd. Paxton, 63, staged a rally at Betty Rose’s Little Brisket and even got help from Senate Republican Whip John Barrasso, who came in from Wyoming, to rally the troops.
