French Edges Wright in Texas Railroads Race
Description
Bo French narrowly edges out incumbent Jim Wright in a razor-thin Texas Republican primary for Railroad Commissioner — a role now focused on oil and gas, not trains. French, riding the MAGA wave with fiery rhetoric against DEI, “radical Islam,” and Chinese influence in Texas energy, outmaneuvered Wright despite the latter’s powerful endorsements from Abbott, Patrick, and the oil industry. French’s controversial past as Tarrant County GOP chair adds intrigue, while his expected landslide in November against Democrat Jon Rosenthal could reshape Texas GOP priorities.
