Where is everybody?
This is a strange primary season here in Nueces County. Perhaps it's because there are only 2 contested county wide races, sheriff and county chair. But there are 2 others that have fairly wide effect; Justice of the Peace, precinct 2, and county commissioner 2 (I think). So why are people not showing up to support each other? Oh well. I am.
What I find so weird is that none of the other candidates for Chair are coming to things. Now, I will say that Evy does show up, but I don't think it ever actually helps her. Monday, at the YWCA Racial Justice Forum, the photographer for the paper looked at me ans said "you are everywhere. Aren't you?" Well, yeah.
One thing I think is not nice is that Alex is standing up and introducing or hosting for one candidate over another. This is not fair. At the moment, he is the face of the Nueces County Democratic Party. I've been joking about how I'm losing out on t-shirts because I can't be for any Democrat over another, but it's not really a joke. Alex is also hosting a breakfast for Rick Noriega.
Ray McMurrey is also running for Senate, he's from here, and even though he doesn't really have a chance, he's sincere. This is not fair.
I guess we'll have to talk it over when we debate next week.

I think that would be a valid point to debate. I am not sure if Alex is actually hosting the Noriega event.
