Beto O'Rourke will be an underdog against incumbent Republican Gov. Greg Abbott.
HOUSTON, Texas -- Beto O'Rourke won the Democratic nomination for Texas governor on Tuesday in a win that kicked off what could be a long, bruising midterm season that is poised to reshape power in state capitals and Washington.
"That's where I think Greg Abbott and the current Republicans kind of crossed the line," said Eric Medrano, 25, a longshoreman in Houston who voted for one of Abbott's far-right challengers, Don Huffines. He added,"I don't believe should be banned at such an early, early stage." Thousands of mail-in ballot applications - and actual ballots - were rejected under the new requirements. Most of those were due to voters not including newly mandated identification, worrying local elections officials that many won't correct problems to have their vote count.
