U.S. Rep. Van Taylor, R-Plano, is suspending his reelection campaign after admitting to an affair. He was headed into a runoff for his seat after finishing his five-way primary with 49% of the vote.
Van Taylor
Taylor made the stunning announcement Wednesday, hours after he finished his five-way primary with 49% of the vote, just missing the cutoff for winning the primary outright. The runner-up was former Collin County Judge Keith Self, who is now likely to become the next congressman for the 3rd District.
Taylor, a former state senator, was first elected in 2018 to represent the 3rd Congressional District in the Dallas suburbs. His four primary challengers on Tuesday criticized his vote last year for a commission to investigate the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol. In his email to supporters, Taylor said he spoke with Self about his decision to end his campaign,"and I wish him the best as he seeks to become the next congressman for this district."
