Incumbents, or those who are currently holding office, typically receive the majority of campaign contributions in Texas as is the case in the U.S. Congress. This is because donors often give to candidates who are already in office and have a proven track record of supporting their interests. Business interests, political parties, and partisan affiliations may also be factors in campaign contributions, but overall, the advantage goes to the incumbents.
