\nJames Talarico, the Democratic nominee for US Senate in Texas, raised more than $3 million in the first 24 hours after Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton emerged as his Republican opponent, Talarico\u2019s campaign first told CNN.\n <\/p>

\n The haul confirms Talarico\u2019s status as a formidable fundraiser as he looks to become the first Democrat to win a Senate election in Texas since 1988. The party is especially encouraged after the scandal-scarred Paxton defeated Sen. John Cornyn in a nasty primary runoff on Tuesday.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cTexans are uniting behind our campaign to defeat (Paxton) and the broken, corrupt political system he embodies,\u201d Talarico said in a statement.\n <\/p>\n

\n The $3 million haul is the most Talarico\u2019s campaign has raised in a single day. It is more than the $2.5 million that Talarico raised earlier this year shortly after one of the biggest moments of his campaign: CBS\u2019 decision not to air an interview that Talarico did with late-night host Stephen Colbert.\n <\/p>

\n Talarico already raised $27 million in the first quarter of this year, one of the largest hauls by a Senate candidate ever. Paxton\u2019s campaign and its affiliated committees took in $2.2 million over the same period.\n <\/p>\n
