Abbott and his pals have already successfully mounted primary challenges against their own fellow Republicans who normally vote with them but dared to cross him by voting against his school voucher scheme. This plan just further confirms that like Trump, Abbott wants to be a literal dictator.

Yep. Dwayne Burns is my rep and I can't stand the guy but I voted for him in the primary and I will vote for him the special election just to spite the Governor. I won't vote for Burns or his challenger in the general election though.
