Huffins, a Republican who is challenging Governor Abbott, has amassed an impressive list of endorsements from conservatives. Huffins is endorsed by Rand Paul:
My friend @DonHuffines was on @TuckerCarlson tonight.
If you live in Texas, I urge you to vote for a true champion of liberty for Governor, Don Huffines. https://t.co/jDWBYuZ89V

He recently also picked up the endorsement of Thomas Massie.
Thank you @MassieforKY for your support of my campaign!
I am honored to receive the endorsement from such a champion for liberty.

Consider who has endorsed @DonHuffines — @RandPaul, Massie, @KatrinaPierson, me.. all of the LIBERTY LOVING FIGHTERS.
That should tell Texas everything you need to know about Huffines!

Newsweek reported that “a Paradigm Partners poll published on Tuesday shows Abbott with just 32.52 percent support among likely Republican primary voters in the state” showing vulnerability.
Abbott polled behind Allen West, with Huffines in third.
