Big-Money, Pro-Gambling Voter Guides Seek to Fundamentally Change Montgomery County
February 29, 2024 | Media Inquiries: press@mctxgop.org
MONTGOMERY COUNTY, TX - Voters should be aware of several voter guides being handed out at the polls and sent to voters’ homes that are financed by out-of-state, pro-gambling, or RINO/Establishment groups. Please do your own research before heading to the polls.
Montgomery County, as the “reddest” large county in the state, is ground zero for groups seeking to turn Texas blue.
Secure Our Border NOW Guide
This guide is paid for by the “Secure Our Border NOW PAC.” The PAC’s top contributors are disgraced Texas House Speaker Dade Phelan and the “Texans for Lawsuit Reform PAC.” (Donor information at transparencyusa.org.)
Note that this PAC is endorsing Bryan Christ, our current censured County Chairman who sued his political opponent and 17 other volunteers. Chairman Christ has apparently aligned himself with the Speaker, who has done more damage to Texas in one legislative session than any other in the past.
Speaker Phelan Works Against Republican Priorities
There is no clearer indication of where candidates stand than if they support Speaker Phelan, the man who bought his seat through a deal with the Democrats that neuters Republican voters’ voices.
Speaker Phelan was personally responsible for killing a key border bill during the 88th Texas Legislative Session and fighting against or delaying bills that would have secured the border.
Speaker Phelan showed his disdain for Republican voters at the beginning of the 88th Texas Legislative session by refusing to even allow a vote for the GOP priority of appointing no Democratic committee chairmen.
He killed one priority after another on border security and election integrity, as our GOP voters seethed with frustration.
He orchestrated and spent millions of your dollars on the impeachment of the most impactful conservative Attorney General in the country, with no thought to the process or discernible evidence.
Speaker Phelan kills your bills. He makes sure that our red state serves blue interests. He allows the colonization of our sacred territory by foreign and criminal interests.
Texans for Lawsuit Reform
The other major contributor to the “Secure Our Border NOW PAC” is the “Texans for Lawsuit Reform PAC.” This PAC was rumored to be behind the impeachment of Attorney General Paxton alongside Speaker Phelan.
Chairman Christ keeps telling voters that his campaign is focused on local support, but this guide shows he is aligned with “Party Boss” Dade Phelan and those who want to remove Attorney General Paxton from office.
Republican Voters of Texas Guide
This group hands out voter guides throughout Montgomery County, especially in The Woodlands. They have been condemned by the Montgomery County Republican Party for their deceptive voter guides that lead people to believe the Republican Party is endorsing their candidates.

Texans for Opportunity & Prosperity Guide
The “Texans for Opportunity & Prosperity PAC” is funded primarily by the Las Vegas Sands Corporation. Another major contributor to the TOP PAC is an Austin-based organization called “Texans for Lawsuit Reform,” which was rumored to be behind the impeachment of Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton.
Texas Speaker Dade Phelan is a major donor to the “Protect and Serve Texas PAC,” another of the TOP PAC’s major contributors. (Donor information for the TOP PAC can be verified at transparencyusa.org.)
Bryan Christ points to a handful of elected officials, who are also clients of his wife’s political consulting firm, as evidence that he has a lot of local support. The fact is the group spending tens of thousands of dollars to try and get Bryan Christ elected is the pro-gambling lobby out of Las Vegas and most of the local elected officials in Montgomery County have not come out in support of Bryan Christ.
Preserve The Woodlands Guide
Another guide circulating Montgomery County is from the “Preserve The Woodlands PAC,” a group closely aligned with the Howard Hughes Corporation, that wants to keep The Woodlands under the governance of county commissioners and big developers instead of the people who live in The Woodlands.
Evaluating Voter Guides

Your vote is crucially important in protecting Montgomery County from left-leaning individuals and groups who support Democrat interests and want to remove the most effective Attorney General in the nation, Ken Paxton. Don’t let them fundamentally change our beloved state and the values we hold dear!
