Texas GOP Convention

Muslim delegates and attendees hoping to participate in the state Republican convention were shunned and rejected by members as they espoused themes of party unity ahead of the November election.

Randall’s supporters were animated by a mix of factors, including the perception that George was too friendly to establishment Republicans.

The proposed language by the party’s Legislative Priorities Committee appears to have strong support from rural delegates, but it potentially stands at odds with the priorities of Gov. Greg Abbott and other state leaders.

Now that the party's nominees are set for the general election, Texas Republicans are shifting their focus to defeating Democrats in November. The 2026 Republican Party of Texas State Convention runs through Saturday.

The newly elected chair and vice-chair of the Texas Republican Party each signed a "Texas First" pledge put forward by a group advocating for secession. Its president says that's "invaluable."

Gathering amid depleted finances and spirited infighting, the Texas Republican Party concluded its 2024 convention in San Antonio on Saturday by electing North Texan Abraham George as new party chair.

Texas is one of 16 states that have open primaries. Republican convention delegates will vote Friday whether to approve a rule to close the party's primaries.

Abraham George is running to lead the state party with backing from current Chair Matt Rinaldi, who announced last week he will not seek reelection. He was not arrested or charged.
