What is your top reason why you would NOT vote for Greg Abbott in the 2026 Texas Gubernatorial Election?

hes republican

Don’t like him

I hate him

Too conservative

I dont like him

No reason.

Been in office for a while, not pleased.

His past terms

I do not support the Republican Party.

because he does bad

I believe there should be term limits at every top position in government. Or at the very least require a break period to allow another candidate to come in. Then after they can be voted back in if the people choose them.

He’s beholden to billionaires and no longer serves the interests of Texas.

Has done a poor job as governor of texas

Probably the total abortion ban

His stance on turning point, abortion, private school vouchers, and overall does not align with my views. Also he is very inconsistent.

He is not fit for it.

i dont understand this so much

Too conservative and a racist.

don’t like his policies

Phone Ban law, Laws against trans people, closeness with Trump.

l am under 18

Because he’s run our state into the ground

he has never provided for the texans.

he's racist

One of my reasons is that he's for ICE.

He’s MAGA

I pray every day that Greg Abbott dies. He is a despicable person and has done nothing but hurt people of Texas.

Having stricter abortion regulation.

He's pro-Zionist and he's not taking a hard enough stance on Sharia Law and the Islamification of Texas.

I would not vote for Greg Abbott because he has outlawed abortion twice, adopted the "phone ban" law, and has has no gun reform despite many school shootings over the years.

He is a republican who does nothing to fix America’s epidemic of gun violence.

Voucher scam and his overall villain vibe

He is corrupted by the wealthy.

He has been in office for too long and many Texans disagree with his policies.

I don't support his policies.

Far right ideology

He is too big in politics right now.

I would not vote for Greg Abbott because he supports Israel and I will never support anyone that proudly supports genocide.

He gives me the creeps

He voted for the abolition of the ADA…he’s handicapped. Why?

Hes a horrible person

He uses too much executive power

He is the a strong conservative.

He does not support public education.

I dont think anyone should hold a seat in office 65+ for cognitive decline and out of touch with the times

Texas needs a change of leadership away from the republican party

He's the epitome of the ruling class. Only serves the rich and kisses the ring.

Anti-abortion and making it mandatory to post the 10 commandments

Anti-abortion and forcing us to display 10 commandments in our classroom

too aligned with Trumpism rather than old school conservatism

Because he has similar policy to Donald trump

Spendings, agendas, stances on Israel, discrimination

Abbott and state leaders have not done enough to force power companies to upgrade their equipment for extreme weather

He has taken steps to defund education and focused on his personal morals being taught.

he also sucks :) he doesn’t have the interests of texans in his mind at all

He is only focused on himself instead of focusing on working for the people of Texas.

Because of his defunding of public education.

He has been the governor for far too long and his policies are not effective. Gina is more progressive and would reflect Texas' shifting viewpoints.

he's imposing pro-life

He's focused on the wrong things

He's Greg Abbott. Why else?

he's against abortion rights...yet he can't even feel his bottom half. His wife is Hispanic but he supports Ice and the border. he makes absolutely zero progress as the governor and his efficiency in speed is slacking like crazy.

he’s incompetent, he has created laws violating women’s rights and has involved his own personal religious beliefs into laws.

I don't like Greg Abbott because I believe him to be a fascist and racist, and a homophobe, and I prefer peace and love

Goes more with republican values.

As the daughter of a teacher I do not agree with his School Voucher program or his lack of public school funding.

The strict abortion policies that he has set in place, he has taken away reproductive rights.

He goes against many of my political views such as immigration

He goes against my values

He is completely ruining education and public safety nets in Texas

Stagnancy in current office

I would NOT vote for Greg abbott because I find his beliefs towards different races, racist, sterotypical and doesn't have ALL Texans interest in mind. His beliefs refer to stricter regulations of immigration, zero abortion rights, and restrict transgender rights. In my opinion, I believe that immigration rules should be relaxed especially to ones under DACA, having LEGALIZED AUTHORIZATION to work in the United States. I belief every women should have their own right to their own body, choices, and ideas ( first amendment ).

Hes old and not really a great guy towards immigrants

He is right wing.

The guy has had 12 years to make Texas better, but can't seem to solve our energy crises that occur every rainy season, the discrimination issues we have within the state, the voucher issues, school choice issues, and our horrific standing in the world of American education.

Greg Abbott seems to support ever policy that is against Texans best interest that don't look like him. That is not what a governor is suppose to do.

I have concerns about Greg Abbott’s policies in Texas and don’t feel aligned with some of the decisions he has supported, particularly on issues related to women’s rights. Because of that, I would likely consider other candidates whose positions better match my views.

He is in the pocket of whoever benefits him personally the most. He is anti-american and anti-texan.

Various changes and laws put into affect that have not benefited the state of Texas and only further enabled tension and frustration within the public.

His stance on public education and defunding of our schools

He has been in office for many years and has managed to destroy our state. Education, healthcare, and other areas of state government have suffered. Especially our public schools with the pass of the voucher program. He needs to be voted out.

He’s bad at handling public school funding.

Abuse of power

Too heavily influenced by the oil and gas industry and the NRA.

opposition to his decision not to expand medicaid in texas

He's done nothing for texas he follows trumps agenda.

He has had a terrible record while Governor.

women and men are equal

Hot Wheels hasn't done anything but suck up to Donald Trump. He's also an old geezer with bigoted views.

hes pro-life,homophobic, against equal pay of women and men, against gun restrictions..etc

His administration is known for controversial policies and fails to govern issues like abortion, education, and more.

because all his new laws in Texas schools really don't do much I dont see it bettering the texas education whatsoever scores are still low and starr test takers still don't improve after taking certain credits/ programs to get them on the right track

I would not vote for Greg Abbott because I don't like the way he uses his power and I don't agree with his ideas.

Too much Trump-backed policies; Lack of separation of church and state

I don’t support Nazis who kiss pedophiles’ asses.

Because he is against Immigrant families.

I don't like his opinions on different things that happen in Texas

Greg Abbot has ruined the once great state of Texas within a Decade.

His handling of the Texas electric grid and the aftermath of the 2021 winter storm.
