Texas has long been an ATM for Republican and Democratic candidates looking for campaign dollars to spend elsewhere.
Republican presidential hopefuls are understandably concerned about fundraising, but they could be missing opportunities to engage with Texas voters who could be important in next year’s fight for the GOP presidential nomination.
Yes, it’s the dawn of the campaign season, and the initial goal of candidates is to have money to mount campaigns in early contest states like Iowa and New Hampshire. But it’s also important to look beyond the first few weeks of the GOP primary process when other states will play important roles in determining the Republican presidential nominee. in the GOP race. The March 5 primary here could propel a candidate toward the presidential nomination, or keep them in the hunt.
In 2016, Texas helped Sen. Ted Cruz become the last candidate standing against Donald Trump, who managed to win the nomination and beat Hillary Clinton for the White House. Right now Trump is comfortably ahead in Texas, which could give rivals pause to invest time here. Still, if you’re already in the state for multiple days of fundraising, why not squeeze in a public event? The traditional media and social media coverage would make it worth your while.
