Democrat Lupe Valdez will resign as Dallas County sheriff today to run for governor against incumbent Republican Greg Abbott.

"Like so many hardworking Texans, I know it's tough deciding between buying food, finding a decent place to live, and setting aside money for college tuition. Opportunity in Texas ought to be as big as this great state, but it is out of reach for far too many, that's why I'm running for Texas Governor," Valdez said in a statement released by her campaign. "I'm a proud Texas Democrat. I believe good government can make people's lives better, and I intend to do just that."

Abbott is doing a fine job. She doesn’t stand a chance.

Didn’t you read her qualifications?

Well, her resume at least.

Mexican minority (well, La Raza approved), female, lesbian, democrat & pro-abort in a liberal city where the taxpayers (er, republicans) are outside the city limits .... Who cares what her qualifications for “sheriff” are.

With the shadow of the Kate Steinle court case still quite large, an ‘espanola’ is actually going to try to run for public office????

I think Greg Abbott will ‘roll’ over this ‘espanola’ like a steamroller.

I use the term ‘espanola’, as the ‘lightest’ condemnation.

We had Czech friends in MN whose last name was "Zvanovec."

It’s Dallas, the metrosexual zone. It’s part of the Austin/Houston/Dallas axis of evil.

Checking all the right boxes: "Female" "Hispanic" "Law Enforcement" "Democrat" "Statist"

She hits the trifecta: Female, Hispanic, and Queer. She'll no doubt carry Oak Lawn and Austin for sure.

Woohoo! Maybe now Dallas can get a decent Sheriff. She sure doesn’t have a chance against Abbott.
