<p>唐纳德·特朗普总统承诺他将在德克萨斯州共和党参议院决选中给予支持，并表示希望他没有选择的候选人退出。但现在，由于忙于伊朗战争和一项注定失败的投票法案，他错过了一个关键的截止日期。</p>
<p>白宫官员周二下午告诉 CNN，这个决定几天来并没有在总统的心头，指出他一直忙于与伊朗的战争。现在，任何候选人从选票上撤回名字的截止日期已经过去。</p>
<p>这意味着现任德克萨斯州参议员约翰·科宁和检察长肯·帕克斯顿的名字将出现在 5 月 26 日的决选选票上，这一点许多参议院共和党领导人——甚至特朗普本人——都承认他们并不希望看到。</p>
<p>白宫官员表示，特朗普仍可能选择在这场竞选中支持某位候选人。尽管截止日期已过，但任何候选人仍可以非正式地从决选中撤回，但他们的名字仍会出现在选票上。</p>
<p>共和党人视德克萨斯州为维持参议院多数席位的关键，并希望在已经昂贵的初选后不必在决选中投入更多资源。参议院共和党领导人一直在强烈施压特朗普支持科宁，他们认为科宁在大选中获胜的可能性更大。</p>
<p>特朗普本月早些时候在激烈的决选中发誓要支持某位候选人，并在社交媒体上写道，他会要求他不支持的候选人 “立即退出竞选”。</p>
<p>这一最后通牒让参议院共和党领导人感到兴奋，因为总统一直倾向于支持科宁。但特朗普和一些高级顾问在他的意图泄露给媒体后感到沮丧，CNN 此前报道。</p>
<p>这一决定因特朗普希望将他珍视的支持与他对 “拯救美国法案” 的执着直接联系起来而变得更加复杂——该法案将实施更严格的选民身份证要求。</p>
<p>在 3 月初，帕克斯顿宣布，如果参议院通过总统的投票限制法案——即使需要改变参议院的阻挠规则——他会考虑退出决选。白宫官员将这一策略视为 “天才之举”，正如一位特朗普官员所描述的那样，这使得帕克斯顿仍然在竞争中。</p>
<p>德克萨斯州最终的撤回日期并不是一个固定的日期，增加了对支持和截止日期的潜在混淆。根据州法律，候选人必须在结果最终确定或 “审核” 后的三天内撤回。如果德克萨斯州共和党在最后可能的日期审核了他们的结果，撤回截止日期将是星期三，但由于他们提前一天审核，截止日期滑到了星期二下午 5 点（中部标准时间）。</p>

<p>特朗普总统计划在德克萨斯州参议院决选中支持一位候选人，但错过了候选人撤回的截止日期。现任参议员约翰·科宁和检察长肯·帕克斯顿将出现在选票上，尽管特朗普希望其中一人退出。特朗普对伊朗战争和一项投票法案的关注使情况变得复杂。共和党领导人更倾向于科宁，以便在大选中有更好的机会，但特朗普的支持仍然不确定，因为他在政治格局中进行权衡</p>
