Senator Cruz Responds to Challenge by Congressman Allred in Race for Senate Seat

(WBAP/KLIF) – Republican senator Ted Cruz is pushing back after Democratic Congressman Collin Allred announced he is running against Cruz in the race for his Senate seat.

“Democrats have once again turned to a far-left radical to run for Senate,” said Cruz spokesperson Nick Maddux on Wednesday. “Not only does Colin Allred vote with Nancy Pelosi 100% of the time, but his voting record is completely out-of-touch with Texas. Allred wants men to compete in women’s sports, isn’t serious about addressing the crisis at the border, wants to take away law-abiding Texans’ guns, and is soft on punishing murderers. Bottom line, Allred is too extreme for Texas. Thankfully, the Lone Star State has a tireless champion in Sen. Ted Cruz.”

Maddux said Senator Cruz has been leading the fight for jobs, freedom, and security in Texas for over a decade, and that he will continue to do everything he can to bring more jobs to Texas, fight out-of-control government spending, and support the oil and gas industry.”

Allred argues Texas has become more divided under Senator Cruz’s leadership.
