Beto O’Rourke: This Campaign in Texas Is Not Going To Be About Joe Biden

EXCERPT:

O'ROURKE: "This campaign in Texas is not going to be about Joe Biden. It's not going to be about Donald Trump. It's not going to be about anyone from outside of our state. This is going to be about the people of Texas and what the people of Texas want. And I've told you, they want the big things, like jobs, great schools, and making sure everyone can see a doctor. But they also want to see some competence in their government. We had an electricity grid failure here in this state this year, though we are the energy capital of North America, millions without power, hundreds who unfortunately died during that disaster. And, even afterwards, our governor has done nothing to protect this electricity grid. And you're seeing electricity and natural gas prices continue to increase in Texas, as ratepayers pay for the damage done by this governor. People in this state want change, and they're focused on what's happening here in Texas, not on what's going on in the rest of the country."
