3. Is Abbott up for re election this Nov. ?

I doubt he'd be removed with the corrupt republicans that are presently in office. But, by following trumps orders to open up too soon , and seeing horrific results , the people will have their say in Nov. . It will not be pretty for trump and the Texas Republicans come Nov..
