My heart breaks as i get so angry for the talented people can become incredible representatives but this fucking economy makes even living a hell. Sometimes that even i argue within the democratic socialists in my chapter is that so many people believe as you long as you “out organize” and make connections with people you can win but sometimes when you dont even the capacity to live a simple life to organize. How on earth do you expect people to organize and run for elected offices when we cannot bother to provide for them and give them some semblance of sanity
Thank you for highlighting both HD 105 and SD 22! Two great Latina candidates! And I love that you think SD 22 is totally flippable cause Amy is amazing! And we are working so hard to Terry Meza here in Irving. We expect her Republican challenger to be a Tim Dunn Latino darling and both Irving and Arlington are going to be ground zero for Tim Dunn who smells blood in the water. So we have our work cut out for us, but Amy is the kind of candidate we need to recruit young volunteers who can in turn cross the county line into Dallas and help Terry since we are unified by CD 6, which under the new maps is significantly more manageable with only 5 counties, which I know extremely well, and have launched my SDEC race for the new district, because SDEC is so important to ensure Kendall is re elected. And on Wednesday Oct 8, our coordinated SDEC race for CD 6 will be launched when our candidate for committee man against Michael McPhail formally announces. We are taking back our district no matter what the lines look like and make sure Terry is supported. And while our east Texas dems will be missed, I have no doubt that our current committee woman will be able to do amazing things in CD 1 with the Smith County Dems who are organizing and working hard. She is already the queen of East Texas and releasing her from this urban, suburban, rural messed up giant district will allow her to shine. While the 5 county new CD 6 is very DFW centered and with the exception of Navarro is basically just one big suburban district. We still keep the urban flavor with parts of Irving and Arlington, but really it is just lots of suburban families who are just amazing and we can unify all kinds of different ways.
As I read your article this morning I started to think of Lady Whistledown's Society Papers. 🤣😂😂🤣
I love the information you give us, especially when it hits close to home. I know the players. Unfortunately I don’t know who Pulindo is. However, I have heard about him. I have a feeling that he calls himself conservative just like I did. Maybe he hasn’t been educated about the different types of democrats. I really don’t know. I don’t know him at all. Anyone that isn’t running in Bexar County I tend to ignore. It’s just too much for me. ☺️
Heck, I read your article to help me keep up with the Bexar County candidates and the elected. I have family and friends in the west side of Bexar County. I keep them informed.
If those maps go into effect. I will no longer be CD21. I will be CD35. So I will learn more about Wilson and Guadalupe County. I feel, I have to for that race. Like you. I’m waiting to see what the courts say but I’m not holding my breath. Thank you Michelle for all you do for us. Will I get notified when my year is up; I want to know when I need to resubscribe to your articles.
With Pulido, I get the impression he wants to do right, but he doesn’t know the harm conservatives have done in this state and has been misled about what a conservative actually is.
Chase Taylor is also running for HD125. Robert Mihara is running for HD117 and Lujan isn’t running in the 118. He is running for 35. There are two former democrats running as Republicans in the 118 against Kristian.
I am watching Talarico and like what I see. Of course I will vote for Allred enthusiastically if he wins the primary, but Allred pissed me off last time.
What I like about Talarico is constantly calling out Wilkes and Dunn and hitting at them directly. I think this is very, very smart. They are the Christian Nationalist pushers. They hide, they skulk and they are destroying this state in the shadows. Talarico has a very pure populist message. And the beauty is when Republicans come at him presenting Christian Nationalism as Christianity, he brings the receipts as to why it is not authentic Christianity. And he has a very effective delivery system which we used to call "killing them with kindness".
I'm scheduled to go to Talarico's FW rally next week. I'll get to gauge him in person. Cruz is almost an afterthought. Talarico is defining this race (I hope) as a battle of the people v. the fat cats, the Christian Nationalists and all their dark money. Can he keep kicking ass? Well, he may be a Presbyterian now, but he comes from a Baptist family.
now a better headline" Allison can't say/won't say but BoBo's MAGA sure can....they have no doubts.......why Tarrant D's can't attract candidates?"
from ur own reporting: "In my county, there are seven Republican candidates, and I don’t see any Democratic candidates for any of them. However, I had the opportunity to speak with the County Chair last week, who reassured me that we have candidates" .
think about it...ur one of 9000 affluent students at TCU, awful lot from Cali......MAGA leadership in FTW/TC ...repeatedly chastises and condems UR UNIVERSITY
and Dem Leadership says nothing..i repeat NOTHING, not one word.....including ur author...MD has never criticized these comments that i can recall..
As young voters are developing their politics for the rest of ur life they experience feckless, listless , disinterest from Texas Dems.........wonder why Kirk is a hit on campus? cause once again we cede the ground.....its not that his voice is louder , its the only voice
Allison Campolo fails college students thruout Tarrant County
Also missing in action are TCU Democrats...i think there is such a thing...and Tarrant County Young Democrats
i think they have a club or a presence....maybe they post an editorial in the Daily Skiff....TCU is being attacked after all .......and then maybe someone posts reference to that at TCDP website and so the rest of us can see students activated and thus get inspired and maybe reach a little further in the wallet.
rite now it feels like a dollar donated is a dollar burned
Bobo attacked TCU twice..once this week...YD has nothing to say? imagine if ur a TCU student looking for some one to stand up against MAGA vilanty..BoBo is one of the more odious practioneers and he gets no blowback from us.

This was the first I've seen from you since Oct 1. Did I miss one?
Posted shortly after midnight.
Nope. I had like a day full of sleeping, I was so exhausted.
now a better headline" Allison can't say/won't say but BoBo's MAGA sure can....they have no doubts.......why Tarrant D's can't attract candidates?"
from ur own reporting: "In my county, there are seven Republican candidates, and I don’t see any Democratic candidates for any of them. However, I had the opportunity to speak with the County Chair last week, who reassured me that we have candidates" .
Reassured like how?
BoBo French, Chair of Tarrant County Democractic Party chastises TCU, a private university commonly....
this time: " TCU Refuses to Allow Campus Baptisms?'....note the question mark .....
accordinglyAllison Campolo of TCDP says nothing..........according to one source "TCDP represents nothing to nobody"
we can't win Texas w/o Tarrant County and the County Dem Party is nowhere to be seen or heard.
think about it...ur one of 9000 affluent students at TCU, awful lot from Cali......MAGA leadership in FTW/TC ...repeatedly chastises and condems UR UNIVERSITY
and Dem Leadership says nothing..i repeat NOTHING, not one word.....including ur author...MD has never criticized these comments that i can recall..

Also missing in action are TCU Democrats...i think there is such a thing...and Tarrant County Young Democrats
we stand for nothing when we stand up for nobody
Young Dems are present at UTA, where I have been, I don’t know about TCU.
i think they have a club or a presence....maybe they post an editorial in the Daily Skiff....TCU is being attacked after all .......and then maybe someone posts reference to that at TCDP website and so the rest of us can see students activated and thus get inspired and maybe reach a little further in the wallet.

just to be clear: AC says we have 5 of 7 state candidates, none of whom have filed........all mysterious....
hardly reassuring.....last i checked that's the county chair's job.
There’s more than a month until official filing begins, it’s not time to panic.
i am not panicked..
just want Alison to say or do something useful....rent parties though , like we are 1960's Harlem..cute.
