Beto O’Rourke reportedly plans to announce that he’ll run for Texas governor

EL PASO, Texas -- Former El Paso Democratic congressman Beto O'Rourke plans to soon announce that he will challenge Texas Republican Gov. Greg Abbott's reelection bid in next year's election, Texas political operatives told Axios on Sunday.
The 48-year-old O'Rourke is one the highest profile Democrats in Texas. He was speculated to have been considering a run for governor for some time now and has periodically hinted at making a political comeback.
Since losing a close U.S. senate race to Republican Ted Cruz in 2018 and a failed 2020 presidential run, O’Rourke has launched a political action committee called 'Powered by People' that has been active in a number of causes - most notably, voting rights.
In a hypothetical gubernatorial race match-up in a recent Dallas Morning News poll, Abbott held a five percentage point lead over O'Rourke.
He will get trounced, once again. What a loser!
Stupid is as stupid does, he just loves spending other peoples money and traveling on their dime for another losing cause
I am still waiting for him to come take my AR-15!
What happened to his application as dog catcher? Got rejected again but this time by the dogs.
Loser.
He’s got my vote. And Abbott will be ousted.
huh?
He will win. I guess the above morons forgot how close the last one was. After Abbott’s failures, BETO will WIN!!!!!
Beto is a loser, just like Alberto
Who says Abbott will even be the Republican nominee? Allen West could give Abbott a run and if Allen wins he will beat A-hole O’Rourke.
Any one would be better than Abbott. Of course that doesn’t include other trumpites.
Right now anyone is better than your senile Joe. He is a trainwreck. Poll numbers down to only 36% approval.
this should be entertaining
Time to start the skimming,,, he has the chance the big dollars from big tech will flow in by the millions and he can start the skimming.
Put Beto on a plane with the Haitians. Then Robert will change his name from Beto to Brother.
My dog has a better chance of being the Governor than that freak little Robert Francis!
The loser is already 6 points down in the leftist polls.
So loser Beto wants to lose again. He lost to Cruz. He lost in the Democrat presidential primaries. He failed to turn the Texas House blue in 2020. He wasted $600,000 supporting the fleebagger Texas House Democrats in D.C. Anything else to add? Oh he failed to come and take my AR15.
