In his 2018 primary election, Flynn again defeated intra-party rival, Bryan Slaton of Hunt County, 11,803 (51.7 percent) to 11,013 (48.3 percent). After his reelection, Flynn called once again to permit public school teachers in Texas the option of displaying the [[Ten Commandments]] in their classrooms.
