Texas hasn't elected a Democratic governor since 1991 and had she opposed open carry of handguns, I doubt she would have made it anywhere near the impressive 38% of the vote she was able to capture in Texas.

People are disgusted with the notion of gun control. Running a campaign on destroying the Bill of Rights just isn't effective unless your name is George W. Bush.
