Monday morning, Greg Abbott voted in Del Valle
and Gina Hinojosa voted in East Austin.
We're facing an election where we have people on the total crazy side,
people who are in favor of boys and girls sports,
people who are trying to impose
higher taxes, people who are dangerous
to the safety of our communities.
There is one fight in this election. It is the fight of our time.
Is this going to be a Texas that is by and for the people,
or is this the billionaire's world and we just live here?
Hinojosa then headed to the courthouse
and filed a lawsuit to see Abbott's unredacted emails with Elon Musk.
She filed a public information request in September and was denied.
Nobody here is accusing Greg Abbott of having
a torrid love affair with Elon Musk.
I don't think that's what this is about.
What this is about is we have the world's only trillionaire getting
massive tax breaks from this governor after giving him over $500,000
in campaign contributions.
Governor, there's been chatter that Gina may file a lawsuit to get
your unprotected emails with Elon Musk. What is your response to that?
Well, it's another act of desperation.
We see act after act after act of desperation.
What Gina's trying to do more than anything else
is to try to get attention for her and her campaign.
And I've got to tell you why.
She sees what I know, and that is this election
has slipped through her hands.
And she doesn't have any ability to do anything else other than
to grasp at straws to get attention.
And it's just not going to work
because Texans have figured out who she is.
She was a fake candidate for most of the time during this period.
Both candidates also addressed the Texas Parks and Wildlife
Commission considering selling Boca Chica Beach to Elon Musk.
These are Texas beaches that are enshrined
in our Texas Constitution as being free and open to the public.
They belong to Texans.
But there is nothing that Greg Abbott won't sell out.
And he has sold out Texans.
People are angry.
What I know is that that's not coming up for a vote anytime soon.
And I don't know what the details are about what Parks
and Wildlife is looking at.
But listen, what I want to do is to make sure,
whether it be there or any other place in the state of Texas,
that we live up to what I've signed into law.
