Speaker candidates condemn e-mails injecting religion into race

Reps. Warren Chisum and Ken Paxton, conservative Republicans who've launched long-shot bids to unseat House Speaker Joe Straus, on Wednesday condemned campaign e-mails that have introduced candidates' religions. E-mails, some of unknown origin, have surfaced in recent days that mention Straus' rabbi and underscore the Christian faith of his leading critics in the House Republican Caucus. One e-mail promises that "Straus is going down in Jesus' name."
