# Texas PAC 32.4M Texas Senate IE October 2026 On **2026-10-20**, [[Texas PAC]] (FEC **C00960211**) disclosed **$32,351,163.12** of independent expenditure opposing [[James Talarico]] in the [[TX-Sen-2026]] general election — **file 2034926**, form `F24N`, received 2026-10-21 at 17:00:01. The notice has only **two lines**, and both are among the largest single Schedule E rows of the cycle: | Purpose | Payee | Amount | |---|---|---| | Media | [[Flexpoint Media]] | $21,602,193.12 | | Digital media | [[Flexpoint Media]] | $10,748,970.00 | Both oppose **Talarico** (FEC `S6TX00479`), election code `G2026`. The $21.6 million line is the largest single independent-expenditure row this task has recorded. ## The running total The row aggregate on this notice closes at **$180,925,969.43** — Texas PAC's cycle-to-date independent expenditure as the committee itself reports it. ⚠️ Under the back-sweep standard, the aggregate column's meaning is filer-dependent and is not quoted here as a verified race or committee total; it is reported as the figure the filer put on the document, traceable to file 2034926. This is the third notice from this committee on the site, after [[Texas PAC 61.4M Texas Senate IE]] and [[Texas PAC 53.9M Texas Senate IE]]. ## Why it matters One vendor, one target, no hedging. [[Texas PAC]] is the vehicle through which the [[Senate Leadership Fund]] entered Texas, and the concentration — 100% of a $32 million day through [[Flexpoint Media]] against a single candidate — is the signature of a race the committee believes is still movable with two weeks left. ## Verification Derived from the raw filed document. Both lines are unflagged originals on an `F24N` notice with a single expenditure date inside the filing window; nothing on it needs adjusting before it is totaled. The notice totals **$32,351,163.12**, and both lines independently clear the $10 million single-line threshold. ⚠️ **First read** from the 2026-10-21 tranche, to be re-derived on the next run's T-2 re-check.
