Talarico steps off Texas Senate campaign trail after flu diagnosis
James Talarico left the Texas Senate campaign trail after saying he had the flu and was recovering at home in Austin.
Ken Paxton and Donald Trump criticized Talarico’s absence, with Paxton leading supporters in asking, “Where is James Talarico?”
Online rumors falsely claimed Talarico had received mental-health treatment in Ohio, but Lindner Centre of Hope said he had never received treatment there.
Talarico said the flu explanation was true and criticized the online rumors.
