2024 Elections: Rep. Tony Gonzales' Primary Runoff Battle

Rep. Tony Gonzales is facing a tough primary runoff against a gun-rights YouTube star backed by conservative members of his party. If Gonzales loses, Republican leaders fear either losing the seat or further inflaming internal divisions. Despite support from some key figures like Gov. Greg Abbott and Speaker Mike Johnson, Gonzales is battling attacks from his own colleagues and struggling to maintain his moderate image in a district that has grown more conservative. The race is heating up with strong campaign efforts on both sides, and the outcome remains uncertain.
