The U.S. Senate race remains unclear after the Texas primaries Tuesday.

Incumbent U.S. Sen. John Cornyn will face a runoff challenge from Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton after neither secured the necessary amount of votes to win the nomination.

On the Democratic side, voters picked state Rep. James Talarico over U.S. Rep. Jasmine Crockett. A court ruling put the result of this race into limbo for a while.

Candidates must get more than 50% of the vote to avoid a runoff on May 26.
