Which of the Tea Party groups are you affiliated with?
Her chances are not good because Texas Republicans prefer old names that they recognize. Even George P. Bush is technically an “old name”.
I’m going at this point with Stockman, Abbott, Patrick, Watts for land commissioner, Opiela for agriculture commissioner, Christian for railroad commissioner, and Talton for Chief Justice. No decision yet on attorney general (lean Paxton) or comptroller (lean Hegar).
Here are a couple of sources of candidates in the upcoming primary.

SOS listing available by County which may be the best source for local races.

“She’ll be great if we can get her elected.”
The hard part will be the primary against incumbent Congressman Pete Sessions, who will have unlimited money to spend (he had raised $1.3 million by the end if 2013 and was only getting started). But whoever wins the GOP nomination will be elected in November, not because the district is particularly Republican (it gave Romney 57%, which was his lowest vote percentage in a CD currently held by a Republican), but because Democrats aren’t really contesting the seat (the filing deadline was Dec. 9, and the only Dem candidate is a guy who hasn’t reported raising any money and whose website doesn’t have any information).
I’m going w Stovall(Stockman seems a little looney tunes to me)
Abbott,
Patterson(Patrick is a Showboat),
there is no choice but Paxton for AG, Branch is the reason we have Joe Strauss and Smitherman is the reason we have Smart Meters, whether we wanted them or not.(Big Brother can turn your power off)
Hegar for comptroller
Miller for Agriculture, he is actually a farmer,
and Christian for RR Commissioner,just to stick it to Straus the man who redistricted Wayne out of his legilative seat.
The fact that Pete doesn’t live in the district anymore is playing very well for Katrina.
What is it about?
Katrina
Yea, but what is it about?
