As someone from Central Texas, I’d like my state to have a Governor who could stand up to the N.R.A. & gun lobbyists, but sadly Governor Greg Abbott can’t do that. Furthermore, I’d like to point out that our last 3 Governors were Greg Abbott, Rick Perry, & George W. Bush, whom have been the 3 Stooges of Republican state “leadership.” Here’s hoping that Beto O’Rourke wins the Governor’s race against Abbott in November. And this is very likely given how close the margin between the 2 of them is with Abbott’s approval rating continuing to fall after Uvaldi.
