The debate between Senator Ted Cruz and Colin Allred was a substantive clash focusing on key policy issues with minimal personal attacks, marking a political throwback.
Cruz showcased himself as the protector of traditional Texas values, asserting his long-standing Republican control over the state while Allred aimed for a more inclusive vision for Texas.
Allred highlighted Cruz's controversial 2021 trip to Cancun during a crisis, using it to paint Cruz as disconnected and unaccountable to Texas constituents.
Despite his experience, Cruz faced a well-matched opponent in Allred, who demonstrated agility in debate, only faltering with an ill-conceived sports-related joke.
