No, that's not how it works. If each of those challengers takes votes from Cornyn, and he doesn't get 50%+1, he goes to a run-off with the number 2 vote getter.

Can't split the vote in the primary in Texas.

I’m aware of the 50+%, but it would be nice to know who is most likely to beat him in a runoff.

You mean, not *yet*, I presume.

Let’s just hope the Texas fuse is not already lit one day, BEFORE a suggestion shows up, on how the hell “dire” it is.

I simply hate to play defense, but that’s just me.
