More than 60% of Uvalde County voters help reelect Republican Gov. Greg Abbott on Tuesday, just five months after the school shooting at Robb Elementary that left 19 kids and two teachers dead.

Republican candidates across the United States are campaigning on anti-transgender policies to rile up their base, turning the 2022 midterm election season into what at times feels like a nonstop deluge of anti-trans messaging. Ultimately, there’s a lot on the line for trans rights ahead of Tuesday’s vote.

Days after being elected Texas governor in 2014, Greg Abbott called a staff meeting to discuss his vision for leading the state.

“Our number-one priority as public servants is to follow the law,” Abbott, who served as Texas attorney general before he was elected, told staffers, according to his autobiography. Adhering to the law was “a way to ignore the pressure of politics, polls, money and lobbying.”

The race for Texas governor is a battle over two visions of America. Can Democrat Beto O'Rourke harness growing support for gun control and abortion rights to win - or will concerns over crime and immigration return Republican Greg Abbott to office?

Beto O'Rourke stood in the middle of a music hall in Houston, Texas, surrounded by cheering supporters.

He had been introduced by Hamilton musical creator Lin Manuel Miranda and can count pop star Harry Styles and actor Matthew Broderick among his backers.

​Former President Donald Trump dropped his biggest hint so far that he may run again in 2024 at a rally in Texas, telling his supporters “I will probably have to do it again.”

“I ran twice. I won twice. I did much better the second time than I did before,” Trump said Saturday evening in Robstown, Texas, where he spoke in an effort to boost GOP candidates in the Lone Star State.

Former President Trump told = supporters at a rally in Robstown, Texas, on Saturday that he "will probably have" to run for president again in 2024.

Why it matters: It's a strong hint of his intentions for 2024 amid speculation he may announce his election plans in November.

If he does announce a run in 2024, it could set up a rematch against President Biden, who said in an interview on Saturday that he intends to seek a second term but he had not made a formal decision yet.

Former President Donald Trump is holding a rally in Texas two days before early voting starts for the November election.
