Pants on Fire ratings account for 9 percent of our 6,003 Truth-O-Meter fact-checks.
Our fact-checks in advance of the Texas primary runoffs include crime-tinged charges from a rough-and-tumble Travis County constable’s race and immigration-tied claims by the Republican U.S. Senate hopefuls.
But there’s more in our gallery -- including our review of claims by state Sen. Jeff Wentworth, R-San Antonio, that Texas Senate hopeful Donna Campbell has been calling for a 35 percent state-local-federal sales tax.
Also, a U.S. House candidate, Wes Riddle, hews to a claim that we found unsupported. He said on Facebook that the federal government is giving Russia some islands.
We’re piling up the latest checks; please look to the right.
Polls are open 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesday.
