Last fall, Gov. Greg Abbott prematurely congratulated the Houston Astros on their win against the Kansas City Royals. The Astros didn’t actually win (whoops!), but Abbott kind of did when he decided to put his gift for being a jinx to good use:

I don't believe in curses or jinks. But just in case they really work: Congratulations @HillaryClinton.
