Texas Divided: Impeachment of Ken Paxton Sparks Controversy and Political Tension

A recent poll conducted by the University of Texas at Austin found that 50% of Texas voters believe the impeachment of now-suspended Attorney General Ken Paxton was justified, with a slight plurality of Republicans agreeing. The House impeached Paxton last month, alleging a yearslong pattern of misconduct and lawbreaking. The poll also found that Paxton's approval rating has declined to its lowest point in the poll's history, with 30% of voters approving of his job performance.
