The Texas Liberal 2010 Texas Democratic Primary Endorsement Slate
Here is the Texas Liberal slate of endorsements for the 2010 Texas Democratic Primary.
You’ll note that I have not endorsed a candidate for most races in Harris County and that I’ve left out a few statewide offices.
I had planned to at least figure out all the statewide candidates, but I was in Ohio all last week and just could not find the time upon my return.
There are so many people running for all these judgeships in Harris County. Who the hell are all these people?
I promise I will study the candidates before I vote Tuesday. I’m a good citizen As for the candidates I have selected, you can bet your bottom dollar that I know just what I am talking about.
Each endorsement is linked to the post I write for the candidate in question.
Here we go—
Governor—Bill White
Lieutenant Governor—Linda Chavez-Thompson
Commissioner of Agriculture—Hank Gilbert
Texas State House District 146—Borris Miles
Judge 313th Juvenile Court—Marc Isenberg
Harris County Criminal Court At Law #9—Sylvia Pubchara-Munoz
For some of the other races on our primary ballot, please consult my friend Perry Dorrell at Brains & Eggs. Perry is a good liberal.
Another trusted source for endorsements is the Houston political blog Dos Centavos.
You could also use this resource at the Houston blog Off The Kuff.
The Houston League of Women Voters has a voter’s guide for the primary.
I’d like to put in a plug for Paul Simon and Christina Bryan. I know you resented that letter you got from Simon, Neil, but in this case, I think it’s not enough of a factor *for me* to offset the rest of what I know and like about him. Also i find Christina Bryan exceedingly impressive across the board. I like her personally, like her positions, like her story etc.
Julie—Thanks for these views.
