Rob LaushesHOST
But speaking of OAG duties, very last thing here is I wanted to plug an interview that our reporter Holly did with State Senator Mays Middleton, who is the Republican running for Texas attorney general to succeed Paxton in November.
Rob LaushesHOST
He is running against Democratic State Senator Nathan Johnson.
Rob LaushesHOST
And so Middleton and Holly talked about public safety-related issues like local district attorneys and Governor Greg Abbott's plan to create a statewide prosecutor, as well as some open records issues at the Office of the Attorney General, which is sort of a perennial thorn in Holly's side, I think.
Rob LaushesHOST
So definitely I would recommend checking out that interview, along with all of our other interviews that we've been doing with candidates leading up to November, because they are all absolutely fantastic.
MarkHOST

Lieutenant Governor's race, Democrat Vicki Goodwin, 49, Republican Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick, 46, Attorney General race, Democrat Nathan Johnson, 48, Miles Middleton, the Republican, 47, and in the Controllers race, Republican Don Huffines leads 47 to 46 over Sarah Eckhart, the Democrat for state controller.
Kenny RohmeyerHOST
So for those of us that have been around here for a while, let's face it, these are historically tight races.
Kenny RohmeyerHOST
You have to acknowledge that.
