Eddie Bernice Johnson has a Republican opponent.

His name is Wilson Aurbach, and he's an attorney with Hughes and Luce. Apparently he plans to make Eddie Bernice's pro-Wright-amendment stance a key part of his campaign. I think he's just wanting to run a campaign just for the hell of it; I mean, he has NO chance. :rofl: Anyway, I think it's pretty keen, because that means that she will actually run a campaign in her district, which should have the effect of raising Democratic voter turnout all across Dallas county. Yay, more Democratic countywide candidates will win!

1. I have a confession to make

Last night I went to the Dallas GOP site to see their slate of candidates, and saw that there are THREE repukes who filed to take on EBJ!:wtf: were they thinking?
(And yes, I took a shower.)

3. Well, then the Dallas county site differs from the state site.

Because the state site only has 1 listed. I wonder which is correct?

2. She has a great opportunity to

mobilize a tremendous GOTV effort in her district in November, benefitting every Democrat down the ballot.

That's how you build up a bank account of favors (not that she needs more, but you can never have too many).
