AUSTIN - Offer Vince Shlomi, the entrepreneur widely known to television viewers as the high-energy "ShamWow guy," has filed to run for the U.S. House of Representatives as a Republican in Texas’ 31st Congressional District, according to state election records.
Shlomi, 61, is aiming to unseat eight-term incumbent Republican Rep. John Carter, 84, who is seeking re-election in the district, a reliably red stronghold that encompasses northern Austin suburbs, Temple and Fort Hood. Shlomi is reportedly one of at least 12 candidates seeking the Republican nomination in the primary.
The Israeli-American entrepreneur stated his decision to seek office was fueled by a desire to "destroy wokeism" and "make America happy." Shlomi told Fox News Digital that his run is also a tribute to the late Charlie Kirk, whom he called the original "woke buster."
