Nathan Johnson

Your Attorney General should deliver for you, not party bosses or billionaire donors. In the Senate, I've expanded health care, fortified the power grid, and led the fight against corruption in the highest levels of state government. I'm ready to deliver even bigger wins as AG.

To the many wonderful people who invested their time, money, emotion and hopes into electing me as their next Texas Attorney General: I share this win with all of you. I look forward to making you proud.

My first priority as your AG-elect is to rebuild the Attorney General’s office. Years of corruption, partisan zealotry, and incompetence have left it hollowed out and demoralized. I’m ready to hire good people and build a solid foundation for the work we need to do.

Back in 2017, I had a hunch that we could flip Texas Senate District 16. We did. In 2025, I had a hunch we could flip Texas. On Tuesday, we did.

This is a tremendous honor, and a tremendous responsibility. Texans voted for an attorney general who will represent them and the interests of our state, and who will above all uphold the rule of law. That’s what I intend to do. I’ve got a lot of work ahead of me. But I look forward to what we will accomplish.

Sometimes we all need a joke (and I’m not talking about the Republican slate). This 1990s gem parodies both parties, with enough truth to make it really funny.

When we win this election on Tuesday, we must meet the moment with action, not empty promises. When I’m Attorney General, every Texan will know that the law is on their side and that the AG’s office works for them.

Across Texas in my campaign for Attorney General, reporters have said over and over, “You’ve got an uphill battle.” I don't think so. Today is the last day of early voting. Grab a friend and head to the polls. Uphill or downhill, let’s get across the line in first.

It’s unanimous! Every major newspaper in Texas agrees: I’m the best choice to serve as Texas Attorney General. There’s a clear choice in this election and their support speaks volumes.

On November 3rd, we will end the era of corruption in the Attorney General’s office. Mayes Middleton might believe that Paxton legacy is worth continuing, but I believe Texas needs an AG who will uphold the rule of law and turn the page on using public power for private ends.

One of the most moving experiences of this campaign was spending the day with the local sheriff in Terrell County’s Big Bend region. Surrounded by beautiful vistas, we discussed the realities of effective border enforcement and the waste and destruction brought on by Trump’s border wall. These are the conversations I’ll carry with me as Attorney General.

It’s time to vote corruption and abuse of power out of the Texas AG’s office. After 12 years of Ken Paxton, we need an Attorney General who will put the rule of law over politics, and the public good over a personal agenda.

One of the beautiful things about Texas is how different every part of it is from everywhere else. As your Attorney General, I look forward to representing all of Texas, and all of you.

I’m ready to work with the Legislature to ensure the AG’s office can effectively protect Texans and serve the public interest. We must modernize our market competition, consumer protection, and employment laws to keep pace with emerging industries and technologies. I have a plan to get it done.

Team Johnson cast their ballots today and met some supporters along the way! Their excellent work has set us up for the win, and I’m lucky to have them by my side. Follow their example and vote! Early Voting ends October 30, and Election Day is November 3!

"If someone can restore honor to the attorney general’s office after the Ken Paxton years, it’s Nathan Johnson."

The rule of law is the rule of law, no matter your party. That’s why two former Texas Supreme Court justices, both appointed by a Republican governor and elected on the Republican ticket, endorsed me in this race. I’m honored by the confidence Chief Justice Tom Phillips and Justice Deborah Hankinson have placed in me.

The Texas Attorney General race is worthy of more attention than it gets. The office is tremendously powerful, and we’ve seen how damaging it can be under the wrong leadership. You have a voice in how that power will be used for the next four years. Please be sure to use it.

“Johnson is running on a platform of returning the office to its core, nonpartisan duties: rooting out corruption, tackling uncompetitive markets, protecting consumers, helping local officials uphold public safety, and overall standing on the side of Texans.” “The differences between the two candidates vying to replace Paxton are stark: One promises to continue Paxton’s legacy; the other promises to make a clean break from it. Johnson is the latter.” - Houston Chronicle

There are only two choices in this race. My opponent “MAGA Mayes” Middleton promises to misuse the office for purely partisan purposes. I pledge to restore the office to its constitutional purposes.
