GOP Primary - U.S. House District TX-10 – Discussion Thread

The Texas primaries are set for Tuesday, 9 March 2004. The U.S. Congressional districts in Texas have been significantly altered due to the re-districting battle last year. One heavily altered district is TX-10 which stretches from the western suburbs of Houston to Austin. Since the current office holder (Lloyd Doggett-D) is running in district TX-25, this is one district that many expect to switch from Democrat to Republican.

There are eight (at-least) GOP candidates for this office. Most of these candidates have little name recognition, and many people voting in this race were in other districts for the 2002 election, this thread is started to help gather and share information with fellow voters. Web-sites for the candidates are linked in alphabetical order.

Candidate web-sites are linked in alphabetical order. Chances of a run-off (to be held Saturday 3 April) are high, since it is unlikely anyone will get 50%+1 of the votes; we will deal with any potential run-offs later.

So, are you saying that a republican who makes accusations against another is not a decent type republican?

Contact The Liberty Committee and find out why they support Devine. I would imagine all nominees for district 10 were contacted by The Liberty Committee and Devine is the only one interested in becoming part of it. I find The Liberty Committee Group very important. My leanings are to vote for a nominee that will be part of The Liberty Committee.
