Michael Cooper to Run for Governor of Texas in the Tuesday, March 1, 2022, Democratic Party Primary


Gov. Greg Abbott is going to be hard to beat in Texas. For those of you who don't know, in the last Midterm Election that was held back on Tuesday, November 6, 2018, Governor Abbott beat the Democratic nominee (Lupe Valdez) well over a million votes. As a refresher, Gov. Abbott received, 4,656,196 votes, for 55.81% of the vote. His Democratic challenger, Lupe Valdez only received 3,546,615 votes, for 42.51% of the votes. And a Libertarian by the name of Mark Jay Tippetts who also ran for governor back in 2018, only managed to receive 140,632 votes, for 1.69% of the vote. So, I don't think that Gov. Greg Abbott is too concerned about Rev. Michael Cooper recently announcing that he's going to seek the Democratic nomination in the race for Governor on Tuesday, March 1, 2022. Why, well, conventional wisdom says that Rev. Michael Cooper is going to be one of many viable candidates who will be seeking the Democratic nomination in the race for Governor of Texas.

Michael Cooper Has Announced His Bid for Governor of Texas in the Tuesday, March 1, 2022, Democratic Party Primary

AUBREY R. TAYLOR REPORTS©

As we’ve learned over the course of the last few election cycles – anything can happen in the world of politics. Now, even after saying that – I don’t believe in luck! Nor do I believe in coincidences. However, I do believe that God is the controller of outcomes. And, that being said, I believe also believe that He allows things to happen, that we don’t understand sometime. But even in this, each of us has a role to play in the unfolding of God’s plan for our life. So, I’m not here to determine whether Rev. Michael Cooper has a snow-ball’s chance in hell of winning the Tuesday, March 1, 2022, Democratic Party Primary in the race for Governor of Texas. Nope, I’m not saying that at all. However, I am saying that nobody can win a race that they don’t have the courage to enter.

THROWS HIS HAT IN THE RING

For those of you who don’t Rev. Michael Cooper, he unsuccessfully ran for the United States Senate back in the Tuesday, March 3, 2020 Democratic Party Primary. In that race, Rev. Cooper only managed to finish eight in a field of twelve Democratic hopefuls. And back on Tuesday, March 6, 2018, in the last Midterm Election he ran for Lieutenant Governor and lost that bid as well. However, he’s now, put those losses behind him, and has thrown his hat back into the ring hoping to earn the Democratic nomination in the race for Governor of Texas on Tuesday, March 1, 2022. “I want to make sure our teachers come first because our children come first,” said the former president of the Beaumont Chapter of the NAACP in a recently published news article.
