Austin accused Brehm of not giving enough support for local candidates in the 2018 elections. She also came under fire in the campaign from [[Moderate Republican]]s on the premise that she promoted a "conspiracy theory" about the shooting of [[George Floyd]] in [[Minneapolis]], [[Minnesota]]. She also claimed that the [[coronavirus]] was “promulgated by the Democrats to undo all the good that President Trump has done for our country." She encouraged people to “take off your masks.”<ref name=austindefeatsbrehm/>

Having alleged improper counting practices and obstructing Republican poll watchers by the Bexar County elections office, Brehm refused to certify the results of the runoff in which she was unseated. Austin will hence get his commission from the state party.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.ktsa.com/republican-party-chair-refuses-to-certify-primary-runoff-election-results/|title=Republican Party chair refuses to certify primary runoff election results|author=Elizabeth Ruiz|publisher=KTSA in San Antonio|accessdate=July 24, 2020}}</ref>
