TX-GOV: Greg Abbott enters 2026 Texas governor's race with staggering $106 million on hand

Gov. Greg Abbott is entering 2026 with a staggering $105.7 million on hand to power his reelection bid and his efforts to expand Republican dominance down the ballot in Texas, his campaign announced Thursday.

Abbott raised $22.7 million from July through December with more than 48,000 contributions from every county in Texas, his campaign said, bringing his total war chest to nine figures. Over the course of his four gubernatorial campaigns, his team added, Abbott received more than a million unique individual contributions.

“The outpouring of support from across the state sends a powerful message about the values Texans expect our governor to defend,” Abbott Campaign Manager Kim Snyder said. “As socialists win elections elsewhere, Texans are stepping up to support Governor Abbott because he protects our way of life.”

Abbott has vowed to spend heavily to flip Harris County, a Democratic stronghold, red.
