Governor Greg Abbott is the winner of the race for Texas governor against Democratic gubernatorial candidate Beto O’Rourke.
BACKGROUND
Abbott and O’Rourke have been spending that money — as you’ve likely seen — on TV, radio and digital campaign advertisements. O’Rourke’s bid to shore up centrist and right-leaning voters may be hamstrung by stances he took when running in the 2020 Democratic presidential primary — including banning AR-15s.
But Abbott’s enormous campaign bank account means he can paint any opponent negatively across the state without making a public appearance.
