Alright, Alright, Alright: Matthew McConaughey to Reveal 'Shortly' if He'll Run for Texas Governor
American actor Matthew McConaughey has long hinted that he could give the Texas gubernatorial election a shot. Recently, a poll revealed that the actor, should he run in 2022, has a chance of defeating both incumbent governor Abbott and his Democratic challenger Beto O’Rourke.
Matthew McConaughey says he will give a heads up about whether he will participate in the Texas gubernatorial election "shortly," according to a new interview published by
The Hollywood Reporter on Tuesday.
Apparently, the actor hasn't yet made up his mind.
"I’m a storyteller. I’m a CEO. But being CEO of a state? Am I best equipped for the people in the state, and for my family and myself? There’s a great sacrifice that comes with a decision," he told The Hollywood Reporter. "That’s what I’ve been doing, and there’s no tease to it. There’s me doing my diligence and I will let you know shortly."
McConaughey said that he's a "big preparer," revealing that he's doing his research and questioning whether he's capable of assuming such a position.
With speculations about his possible gubernatorial bid circulating for over the last six months, McConaughey has been playing coy, flirting with the topic but never delivering a straightforward answer.
However, he doesn't have much time to make up his mind as the deadline to announce the candidacy for the Texas 2022 race is 13 December.
