In that district? I doubt the GOP would field one.

[TribalPrincess2U]

Oh snap! She needs to go!

[Theodore R.]

Yea, she opened her mouth and removed all doubt, like Clayton Williams twenty years ago. She could have been a contender! And so could Claytie! She never released her maiden name.

Please ping me to your Sarah Live Thread.

Thanks!

Looks like Tommy Merritt went down (state rep 17)

I know Tommy and worked for him on his past couple of elections before this one, however he really screwed the pooch by not voting for the Voter ID law. His motives were good, he was concerned there were too many exceptions and wanted a better law, but his challenger David Simpson capitalized on it and ran some great ads. I stayed completely out of this race knowing both David and Tommy (I won't say who I voted for.)

KBH is conceding!!!

How ironic, she is also conceited.

[SoCalPol]

Live threads, listening to Greta on FOX, and John Batchelor on WABC, I am just fine.

[TribalPrincess2U]

KBH just conceded to Rick Perry... Woo-hoo

I voted for Perry but I’m glad Kay did not have the humiliation of coming in behind the Medina nut case.

Why is she conceding....the lead is narrowing.

This could very well (not likely) but still could result in a run-off.

[StarFan]

KBH just conceded.
