Two-time failed Democratic political candidate Beto O’Rourke, 48, is reportedly weighing whether or not to run for elected office again, this time for governor of Texas. 

According to The Associated Press, O’Rourke has not ruled out running for Texas governor in 2022, when Republican Governor Greg Abbott is expected to seek another term. While O’Rourke has not actively taken any steps toward doing so, an aide close to O’Rourke told the AP, on condition of anonymity, that O’Rourke has not ruled out a bid.
