Campaign

Because no candidate received a majority of votes in the Democratic primary, a runoff was held April 11, 2006. Attorney Barbara Ann Radnofsky prevailed over Gene Kelly. Scott Lanier Jameson won the Libertarian Party nomination at the party's state convention on June 10, 2006, defeating Timothy Wade and Ray Salinas. Arthur W. Loux, a Roman Forest City Councilman and a member of the Minutemen, ran as an independent.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".

Incumbent Republican Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison had co-sponsored legislation supporting a constitutional amendment that would contain senatorial term limits, but stated that she would only leave office after two terms if such limits applied to all senators.[1] After deciding not to challenge Governor Rick Perry in a Republican gubernatorial primary, Hutchison sought re-election to the Senate for a third full term.[2]
