Beto O'Rourke stops in Texoma as part of his Drive For Texas tour

QUANAH (KFDX/KJTL) — As November draws nearer, Democratic candidate for Texas governor Beto O’rourke spent time Sunday to garner support in Quanah and Wichita Falls.

The stops were just a few that make up his Drive For Texas tour.

“These are the things all of us as Texans should expect, having a governor who’s going to fight for rural Texas. We’ll make sure we get it done,” O’Rourke said. “That’s why I’m here, that’s what I will do as governor, and that’s why I think we have so much support in these communities, including the bigger cities like Wichita Falls.”

In Quanah, O’Rourke spoke on many issues, including the power grid, public education and Medicaid. O’Rourke heard from former teachers, farmers and others to discuss growth and opportunities in the state.
