Houston Gaines, a Republican representing Georgia’s 120th House District, recently shared updates on his campaign activities and community engagement through several posts on his social media account.

On March 24, 2026, Gaines expressed gratitude to local supporters and party members by stating, “Thanks to the Oconee County GOP for hosting The Stumping Ground this weekend — and to all of our volunteers & supporters who made sure Team Gaines was well represented! Over the last week, we’ve hit events in Oconee, Barrow, Clarke, Greene, Putnam, Elbert & Hart counties.”

Later that same day, he commented positively on Delta’s actions with a brief message: “Good — well done, Delta! This is how it should be.” The context of this statement was not specified in the post.

On March 26, 2026, Gaines reflected on a recent campaign event in Madison. He wrote: “Great breakfast in Madison yesterday—thanks to everyone who came out to support our campaign. I appreciate Brooks Pennington & Ray Higginbotham organizing, and Sheriff Tyler Hooks stopping by & his continued support. We’re building real momentum—and just getting started.”

Gaines was elected to the Georgia State House in 2023 after replacing former state representative Trey Rhodes. He has since focused on engaging with constituents across multiple counties as part of his ongoing campaign efforts.
