South Texas congressional candidate raffles off firearm to raise money
Second Amendment advocate and YouTube vlogger-turned-congressional candidate Brandon Herrera this week unveiled a fundraising effort that was, well, certainly on-brand. To play campaign cash catch-up in his runoff for the Republican nomination to represent Texas' 23rd Congressional District, Herrera — known to followers as the "AK Guy" — announced he's raffling off an AK-47-adjacent rifle to donors. Incumbent rival U.S. Rep. Tony Gonzales has considerably outraised Herrera, a political novice, according to data released this week.
