Texas Republican Gov. Greg Abbott easily bested a group of right-wing challengers to lock up his party’s nomination Tuesday, and will face Democrat Beto O’Rourke in November.
Republicans bet Texas' primaries will be the first step toward them retaking Congress in November, pointing to President Joe Biden’s low approval ratings, spiking inflation and anger about the chaotic withdrawal of U.S. forces from Afghanistan.
