Only 14 days remain for Texans seeking the state's highest office to officially file for the state's gubernatorial primaries and so far at least six have announced their candidacies for governor in 2022. Candidates entering the race are looking to replace incumbent Gov. Greg Abbott, who on Nov. 23 filed to run for his third consecutive term as governor.
On Sunday, actor Matthew McConaughey officially ruled out a run for Abbott's office next year after months of "measuring" the idea. The Oscar winner announced his decision in a three-minute video, adding that "political leadership" is a "path that I'm choosing not to take at this moment."
With McConaughey standing down, the following are the candidates who have actually filed, or plan to file, for the Texas gubernatorial primary election on March 1, 2022.
