Though actor Matthew McConaughey had previously been opposed to suggestions he should run for governor, in the past couple of months he seems to have warmed up to the idea, telling “The Balanced Voice” podcast he’s giving it “a true consideration.”
According to a new poll released Sunday, it appears many Texans would give him their backing more so than Gov. Greg Abbott.
A survey by the Dallas Morning News and the University of Texas at Tyler found 45 percent of registered voters in the state would likely support McConaughey if he decided to run for governor. That’s compared to 33 percent who said they’d vote for Abbott. Twenty-two percent said they’d vote for someone else.
