Is it Talmadge Helfin (D) Talmadge Helfin (R)?

Andy Taylor, attorney for Representative Heflin, said “The evidence is disturbing but rock solid. It is rare to see so many voters vote illegally and then literally sign their name to it.

Nip it Andy! Nip it in the bud!

Even though I don't know anything about this race I'll take a wild guess and say Hubert Vo is a Democrat. I know, I'm really going out on a limb...

Andy Taylor, attorney for Representative Heflin, said “The evidence is disturbing but rock solid. It is rare to see so many voters vote illegally and then literally sign their name to it. They seemed to have no fear that what they were doing would be uncovered.”

Just a couple of good ole' Texas boys having fun.  That's how we play politics down here . . . even within the same party.

The 28th Congressional District race may be settled, but the squabbling between Democrats Henry Cuellar and Ciro Rodriguez continued this week.

At issue now is the vast number of constituent case files that Cuellar, the victor in the general election, wants from Rodriguez, who lost his re-election battle in the Democratic primary eight months ago.

Rodriguez charged the Cuellar camp resorted to shenanigans when recounts in the March 9 primary overturned the congressman's victory and handed it to the challenger. Rodriguez has vowed to challenge Cuellar in the primary in 2006 to win back his seat.

Cuellar, who defeated Republican lawyer Jim Hopson of Seguin Nov. 2, is preparing for his move to Washington and is calling on Rodriguez to hand over files on constituents served in the congressional district.

In an interview, Cuellar acknowledged the transition is unlikely to be smooth and pointed to lack of cooperation from Rodriguez's office.

“We saw that more than 100 people came in from other counties and voted in District 149 and even were brazen enough to write down their actual address in official voting records. Voters admitted their home addresses were in places as far away as Denton County - 300 miles away,” said Heflin.

I don't understand how they let these people vote or why they had to write down their address unless these were provisional ballots that were wrongly counted.
