"So Beto, if you’re listening: Come home. Drop out of the race for president and come back to Texas to run for senator. The chances of winning the race you’re in now are vanishingly small," the editorial board of the Houston Chronicle wrote.
WASHINGTON – One of Texas' largest newspapers over the weekend had a message for former Rep. Beto O'Rourke: Texas needs you.
O'Rourke paused his presidential campaign last week to stay in El Paso, which was the site of an apparently anti-Latino shooting that left at least 22 people dead. Authorities linked the alleged shooter to a manifesto that had anti-immigrant and anti-Latino ideologies. In addition, authorities said the suspect told them he was targeting Mexicans.
Story continuesHowever, he has since slumped in both polling and fundraising. O'Rourke raised only $3.6 million in the second quarter of this year. He will be on the debate stage in September despite falling in polling and fundraising.Notwithstanding the latest plea for him to run for Senate, O'Rourke's campaign has repeatedly pushed back against past efforts to convince him to switch contests and challenge Cornyn.
