Original: Abbott ramps up attacks on Democratic challenger, Gina Hinojosa, as Texas governor’s race tightens
Texas Governor Greg Abbott has intensified his attacks on Democratic challenger Gina Hinojosa as the governor's race tightens. The Republican incumbent, seeking another term, is directing sharper criticism at the Austin-area state representative as polling suggests a more competitive contest than expected. The escalation signals that Abbott's campaign views Hinojosa as a credible threat in a state Democrats have long sought to flip.
