Dallas is Crockett’s home base and historically home to more than 10% of all ballots cast in Democratic primaries in Texas; the county GOP led by Chair Allen West refused a joint primary with Democrats leading to confusion about where voters could cast their ballot
AUSTIN – It
couldn’t just be a clean finish, could it?
Here in
Austin, Rep. James Talarico is holding off for now on moving forward
with a celebration and Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett up in Dallas told
supporters she will not appear before them again this evening because she does
not expect final results just yet in the most-watched
Democratic US Senate primary in the nation.

Attorneys for the plaintiffs argue it’s extra egregious because Acting Comptroller Hancock was not elected to his position; Republicans and Democrats have agreed that it was an “inside job”; Hancock has said the program as it existed is “discriminatory and doesn't abide within the Constitution”
A lawsuit
filed in Travis County alleges acting Comptroller Kelly Hancock and
three stage agency heads overstepped their authority when they restructured a
longtime program meant to diversify the pool of state contractors. In December,
Hancock announced he was restructuring the Historically Underutilized
Business program to only focus on businesses run by veterans with certain
disabilities, cutting out people of color and women who have been included in the
program for decades. Hancock also renamed it VetHUB.
The
lawsuit also has Texas Capitol players again talking about the
way in which Hancock left the Senate and was, as one put it, “snuck into the spot
he’s in now.”

As many of
you know, renowned Austin journalist Davey Joe Montgomery, the drawling
Texas Capitol scribe and onetime Moscow bureau chief, was jogging New Year’s
Day and fell hard. Hours later, he was connected to a hospital respirator after
being diagnosed with a brain injury from the fall. Then pneumonia hit.
More from the
GoFundMe page that was set up to help Davey Joe after his injury:
More
than 50 days later, he remains bedridden and unable to walk any distance. A
long convalescence with therapy will be necessary.
The
outpouring of love and concern from far-flung colleagues and friends inspires
81-year-old Montgomery to battle on from perhaps his seventh different hospital
room. He’s even keeping up his sense of humor. Doctors, nurses and therapists
look forward to spending time with him.
Still,
the situation is tough.
Bills are piling up for his wife Linda, who uses a walker and is
unable to drive. Their daughter comes up weekends from
the Houston area where she teaches special ed students full-time. Their adult
son who lives with them is hospitalized with an ailment.
Again, here’s
the link for the fundraiser. Thanks so much for helping
out.

8 day reports show PACs playing hard, what looks like a tossup Senate race in East Texas, and Speaker Burrows' team stepping up to defend some embattled incumbents
Whoever
thought any Republican (or Democratic) member of the Texas House
could still be thought of as a RINO at this point is beyond me.
But this
is also the primary cycle in which trial lawyers through creative new entities
(Coalition for Working Families PAC and Justice for Texas
Victims) coupled with the Tim Dunns and Wilks brothers of
the world to defeat Texans for Lawsuit Reform.
Also there are new are leadership-aligned
PACs (Texas Conservative Majority PAC). More on those tomorrow.
But here we go with the hottest campaign finance reports of the primary cycle: 8-day campaign finance reports:
