Beto Is Raising Significant Money ($7M+ so far)
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Democrat Beto O'Rourke said Tuesday that his campaign for Texas governor raised $7.2 million in the first six weeks of a race that could wind up as one of the nation's most expensive in 2022.

The announcement, made on the deadline in Texas for campaigns to submit their latest finance reports, is an early marker of whether O'Rourke can remain a fundraising powerhouse in his latest comeback after failed bids for the U.S. Senate and president.

#1 Last chance to cash in. Texas election laws don't require disclosure, and it's basically the candidate's piggy bank.
He pulled $80m when he ran for the senate, but that was federal.

#3  Last chance to cash in

Is Beto running a personal grift or is this a bit of money-laundering/payoff for services rendered?

#7 ^ Mixican's "gran-pappy in law" is probably thinking, "Son, you bought the cow, not me."
