AUSTIN — Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has decided not to give away a shotgun in the wake of the shooting at Santa Fe High School.

On Monday, Abbott campaign spokesman John Wittman confirmed that the governor, who is running for re-election, will no longer be raffling off a "Texas-made shotgun." The contest winner will instead receive a gift certificate.

"It has been changed," Wittman told The Dallas Morning News. "Now it's just a contest for a $250 gift certificate."

Gun control activists criticized Abbott for the raffle, demanding he take it down after the Friday morning rampage. The shooter, 17-year-old Dimitrios Pagourtzis, used a shotgun and a pistol to kill 10 of his fellow Santa Fe students and teachers.

"We are happy that the governor has canceled his shotgun giveaway," Matthew Hogenmiller, 16, who leads the Austin chapter of the student gun control advocacy group March for Our Lives, said Monday. "We continue to plead that the money given to the winner is instead donated to the survivors' funds in Santa Fe."

The gun giveaway webpage now redirects to one promoting the gift certificate. A photograph of Abbott with a shotgun, used in the original promotional material for the giveaway, is now featured on the governor's campaign website's homepage under a section on "protecting the Second Amendment."

"Greg Abbott believes the right to keep and bear arms was settled in 1791 when the 2nd Amendment was adopted to the U.S. Constitution," the website reads. "On behalf of 31 states, Attorney General Abbott championed a landmark U.S. Supreme Court decision (District of Columbia v. Heller) that struck down a handgun ban and protected an individual's right to bear arms."

Abbott easily beat out his two Republican primary opponents in March. He will face Lupe Valdez, the former Dallas County sheriff, or Andrew White, a Houston businessman, in the November general election.
