Texas gun owners are heading into the most important election year in a long time, and Texas Gun Rights is making sure nobody walks into the voting booth blind.
This week, Texas Gun Rights officially released its 2026 One Big Beautiful Ballot, a voter education guide designed to shine a light on who is truly pro-Second Amendment, and expose who is just pretending until the cameras turn off.
And in a year where politicians are lying louder than ever, that matters.
What Is the “One Big Beautiful Ballot”?
The One Big Beautiful Ballot is simple, and that is what makes it powerful.
It is a list of candidates at the local, state, and federal level who returned the Texas Gun Rights Candidate Survey and pledged to defend the Second Amendment WITHOUT COMPROMISE.
In other words, these candidates did not just “say the right things.” They put it in writing.
The ballot also exposes something else that matters just as much: who refused to go on the record.
Because when a candidate dodges the Texas Gun Rights Survey, they are not being “careful.” They are being dishonest. They want your vote, but they do not want to be held accountable to specifics once they get into office.
Why This Matters in 2026
Texas gun owners have learned a hard truth over the last decade.
The gun confiscation cartel does not need to flip Texas blue overnight. They just need gun owners to get complacent, stay home, and assume everything will work out.
That is how you lose rights.
That is how you get Red Flag gun confiscation laws.
That is how you get registration schemes.
That is how you get gun bans disguised as “public safety.”
And Texas is not immune.
In 2026, Democrats are running harder than ever, with national money, media backing, and radical candidates who see Texas as the next trophy state for the gun confiscation agenda.
At the same time, weak Republicans in Washington are trying to fool voters with slick ads and conservative buzzwords while quietly selling out gun owners behind closed doors.
What’s at Stake
This election is not just about “winning seats.” It is about whether Texas gun owners will still have the political power to defend themselves and their families without government permission.
If the wrong people win in 2026, gun owners could face a wave of attacks including:
- Red Flag gun confiscation
- expanded “gun-free zones” that turn Texans into sitting ducks
- new taxes and fees meant to punish gun ownership
- registration schemes disguised as “enforcement”
- and politicians who vote like Democrats while wearing a Republican label
Texas Gun Rights says the only way to stop it is to do what the political class hates most:
Name names. Draw lines. Hold politicians accountable.
The Strategy: No Compromise, No Confusion
The One Big Beautiful Ballot is built around a simple principle.
If a candidate will not publicly commit to defending the Second Amendment without compromise, Texas gun owners should assume they will fold the second the pressure hits.
Texas Gun Rights has spent years proving one thing: the establishment does not respond to polite requests. It responds to pressure. It responds to consequences. It responds to voters who show up angry, informed, and ready to replace anyone who sides with the gun confiscation agenda.
That is why the ballot exists: to force clarity, accountability, and choice.
Chris McNutt: “This Is How We Win”
Texas Gun Rights President Chris McNutt praised the release of the ballot as a major step toward securing victories in 2026.
“The gun confiscation cartel is counting on Texans being distracted, confused, and staying home,” McNutt said. “This ballot is how we change that. We are putting every candidate on the record. If they’re with gun owners, they’ll sign the survey. If they refuse, Texans should assume the worst and vote accordingly.”
The Bottom Line
The One Big Beautiful Ballot is not just a voter education guide. It is a political weapon.
It is Texas Gun Rights drawing a line in the sand and telling every politician in the state:
You are either with gun owners, or you are against them.
There is no middle ground.
There is no compromise.
And in 2026, Texas gun owners are not asking permission to defend their rights.
They are taking names.
