Ken Paxton
Current Position: Attorney General since 2015
Affiliation: Republican
Candidate: 2022 Attorney General
Warren Kenneth Paxton Jr.(born December 23, 1962) is an American lawyer and politician who has served as the Attorney General of Texas since January 2015. Paxton has described himself as a Tea Party conservative. Paxton was re-elected to a second term as Attorney General in 2018. He previously served as Texas State Senator for the 8th district and the Texas State Representative for the 70th district.
Paxton is running for re-election in 2022. On May 24, Paxton defeated George P. Bush 68% to 32%, winning his party’s nomination to advance to the November 2022 general election.
Paxton has been under indictment since 2015 on state securities fraud charges relating to activities prior to taking office. He has pleaded not guilty. In October 2020, several high-level assistants in Paxton’s office accused him of “bribery, abuse of office and other crimes”.
After Joe Biden won the 2020 presidential election and Donald Trump refused to concede while making false claims of election fraud, Paxton aided Trump in his efforts to overturn the result, from filing the unsuccessful Texas v. Pennsylvania case in the Supreme Court to speaking at the rally Trump held on January 6, 2021, that immediately preceded the 2021 United States Capitol attack.

Rochelle Garza
Current Position: Attorney
Affiliation: Democrat
Candidate: 2022 Attorney General
“Our state is under attack by politicians who have passed some of the most restrictive laws in the country and sided with special interests over Texans,” said attorney Rochelle Garza. “It’s time for Texans to take a stand. I’m running for Texas Attorney General to be a voice for hard-working Texas families and protect their interests and our civil rights in court.
As Attorney General, I will be the public defender for all Texans and will hold those in power accountable to the citizens of this great state. We will create a government that is truly of the people, by the people, and for the people.”
– Rochelle Garza, Democratic candidate for Texas Attorney General

Declared
- Mark Ash, attorney and candidate for Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Texas in 2020[54]
General election
On October 27, 2022, Libertarian nominee Mark Ash published an op-ed in The Amarillo Pioneer in which he blasted Ken Paxton as "the poster child for corruption and authoritarianism" and recommended that if voters were "reluctant to throw away their votes on a third-party candidate," they should vote for Democratic nominee Rochelle Garza instead. The Texas Democratic Party put out a statement claiming that Ash had endorsed Garza, but Ash clarified that he was not endorsing her, nor would he be dropping out of the race.[55]
