Bexar Democrats -- Some of Them Anyway -- Endorse Fire Union's Charter Amendments

[TexasTowelie]

At a hastily announced press conference this afternoon, San Antonio's fire union touted the highest-profile endorsement for its three proposed charter amendments — that of the Bexar County Democratic Party.

"We thank you for this endorsement and for helping people have a voice to vote, which is the most important thing about being an American," union chief Chris Steele said, surrounded by supporters of Manuel Medina, the failed mayoral candidate and ousted chair of the Bexar Democrats.

Although party officials at the press conference said its County Executive Committee voted four-to-one in favor of the endorsement, that tally wasn't without controversy. Some party insiders maintain it was the result of an ambush vote in August packed with Medina loyalists, or “Manuelistas."

Also worth noting: Steele's fire union endorsed Medina in his 2017 run for mayor.
