My heart is full of gratitude for everyone who believed in our campaign. I’m so very proud of our team and the people who powered it.

Democratic candidate for Texas's 10th District
Chris Gober has spent his career working for billionaires, political operatives, and special interests. Now he wants to work for us? The receipts don’t disappear because you sanitize your website and reinvent your persona.

Elon Musk’s political lawyer drew his own congressional district — and drew Musk’s Austin compound into it. He’s leading by seven points to join the House. A story from the oligarchical-democracy file:

Elon Musk's Political Lawyer Drew His Own Congressional District. Now He’s About to Win.
Musk’s Austin “compound” was in a Democratic district — until his political lawyer redrew the lines.
or uhhhh challenge citizens’ united & everything it begat?
The world’s first trillionaire could drop another half-billion for Republicans on every national election for the rest of his life without breaking a sweat. The only answer is to turn him and his money into a liability for Republican candidates.
My opponent for Texas's 10th Congressional District, Chris Gober, is actively helping Elon Musk stand up an election denial organization just days before polls close.
The national Democratic party has put exactly zero resources into stopping this man from winning a seat in Congress.
The law firm that helped set up Elon Musk’s America PAC has created a new, nationwide “election integrity” organization aligned with Donald Trump’s false claims of election fraud, WIRED has learned.

Hello to new followers. Here's an overview of Texas's 10th Congressional District, which stretches east from Lake Travis and downtown Austin to include half of Huntsville, Texas.
If you're surprised that you are just now learning Elon Musk's political lawyer is running for Congress, here is part of why. This is a text from a journalist who reports on money in politics at a major national publication.
My team has been trying to inform the public since March.
Elon Musk has come under fire over his lawyer running for Congress in a district where SpaceX and Tesla have based a new project.

That law firm is run by Chris Gober, a Republican who is running for a seat in the U.S. House to represent a massive TX district. His opponent is @caitlinrourk.bsky.social.

Musk's PAC lawyer runs in Texas House district that is home to billionaire's business interests
A chip factory being built by Elon Musk's Tesla and SpaceX is in Texas's 10th District, where his PAC's former lawyer Chris Gober is the GOP U.S. House nominee.
We've raised less than $500 today. Not nearly enough to keep communicating with voters through election day. We aren't getting outside help in this race - literally against the richest man in the world - and we need YOU.

One big reason more people don't know Elon's lawyer is running for Congress: the Democratic Party establishment has done nothing to help inform the public. We are doing this on our own, and we need your help.

@jenrice.bsky.social Also applies to sitting members of the TX delegation, the DCCC & major national Dem groups. We've been shouting from the rooftops for months about what's happening here. But we just put our heads down and did the work ourselves. 💅

Gober’s law firm is Lex Politica. He also runs other Republican consulting firms including Maven Defense in a consortium he calls the Vantage Network. Our post above focuses on his tight ties to Musk & his pro-AI backers, but he’s also counted Viktor Orban-affiliated Danube Institute as a client…
I have been really surprised by how many people knew about Musk backing Paxton, but not about Musk & his ties to Gober…favored to win & become Republican Rep. for TX District 10 which spans from Austin to Houston.

His opponent, Caitlin Rourk, said she thinks he’s downplaying his Musk and AI industry connections because he doesn’t want constituents to focus on that amid a huge data center & tech backlash, and serious concerns about the impact of Terafab on Texans living next to it in district 10.
People spanning downtown Austin, College Station, Madisonville, and half of Huntsville are going to share a representative in Washington next year. We've found that folks across these communities have so much more in common than it might first appear from a map.
