Former Democratic presidential hopeful Beto O'Rourke is remaining mum on whether he will be running for governor of Texas, leaving Texas Democrats frozen.
In May, it was reported that O'Rourke was considering a run for governor to unseat Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott.
"I've committed myself to this fight for the right to vote and preserving our democracy in America," O'Rourke told The Dallas Morning News, referring to his work with civic engagement organizations.
O'Rourke recently raised $600,000 for Texas House Democrats in DC who fled the state to avoid voting on a Republican election reform package.
If he runs for governor, it will be his third run for statewide elective office, having lost a US Senate and presidential race.
