H-E-B's chairman throws $1 million behind candidates Gov. Greg Abbott wants to unseat

The chairman of San Antonio-based grocery giant H-E-B has funneled more than $1 million into the campaigns of anti-school voucher Republicans that Gov. Greg Abbott is working to unseat, Hearst Texas government reporter Jasper Scherer found in a new analysis. Between Jan. 26 and Feb. 24, the Charles Butt Public Education PAC flowed a total of $1.3 million into the campaigns of nine Texas GOP candidates, seven of whom opposed Abbott's voucher plan, according to Scherer's number crunching. H-E-B honcho Charles Butt is the PAC's founder and sole donor, according to TransparencyUSA.
