San Antonio lawyer to steer Obama’s Texas campaign

By W. Gardner Selby | Monday, July 28, 2008, 06:05 PM

Word is out that Sen. Barack Obama’s Texas operation will be headed by Juan Sepulveda, a San Antonio lawyer who’s already been busy as a volunteer in AlamObama, the grass-roots group advocating for Obama based in the Bexar County seat.

UPDATE: Obama’s campaign issued a statement today naming Sepulveda its Texas state director.

A campaign statement quotes Sepulveda saying: "Our priority is expanding our strong grassroots movement for change across the state so we can help Democrats up and down the ticket and win the White House in November. Texans stood for change in record numbers and they know that John McCain, a candidate who is offering more of the same failed Bush economic policies that benefit the wealthiest Americans, isn’t the change we need."
