Texas Representative Ron Paul garnered more than 80% of his state’s GOP primary election votes yesterday and will be heading back to Washington, easily defeating three different challengers.

Opponents Tim Graney, John Gay and Gerald Wall accused the doctor of becoming too entrenched into the ways and means of Washington D.C. and argued that Paul has abandoned the duties of his position in order to promote his book, among other things.

Paul, who ran for president for the second time in the 2008 presidential elections, was a hero among many believers in small government and the anti-war movement during the campaign. Paul believes in a substantially smaller government, fiscally sound policies and the destruction of our federal reserve system and fiat currency.

Ron Paul has served Texas’ 14th district for 14 years.
