Representative Tony Gonzales narrowly turned back a right-wing primary challenger, AK Guy, in a victory that could bolster his party's House efforts.
Gonzales, a military veteran, transformed into a proponent of strict border enforcement during the race, shifting from opposing his party's hard-line immigration stances.
The race highlighted divisions within House Republicans, with figures like Bob Good, Chip Roy, and Matt Gaetz endorsing Gonzales's opponent, while G.O.P. leaders supported him.
A key issue in the race was Gonzales's support for a bipartisan bill to tackle gun violence, showcasing a departure from traditional Republican stances on the issue.
