Correct. It's an odd (and confusing) title left over from Reconstruction days.
bttt
His bio says he lives in Highland Park and goes to HP Methodist
Wow, I can’t imagine if you know what happens there
I really haven’t seen anything on his poll numbers. It’s all about Davis/Abbott and the local DA whom a republican is trying to unseat.
