Exactly. Seeing this list makes me believe that the Republican party of North Texas has virtually given up on this county!

That is completely unacceptable!

When the dems recaptured Dallas county in 2006 it was a very big surprise to everyone, including the dems.

All the dems on the dallas county ballot in 2006 were throw down candidates.

Nobody actually votes for an individual criminal court judge or an individual family court judge. Those votes come from voting the ticket.

Point taken.
