Guess what day it is?
Today’s featured Texas Tuesday candidate is one of my favorite Houston-area state reps — Scott Hochberg. Rep. Hochberg was one of the brave Killer-D Democrats who went to OK to try to put the kibosh on Tom DeLay’s plan for redistricting. In a memorable Harris County Young Democrats meeting last spring, he (along with Garnett Coleman and Rick Noreiga) opened my eyes to how bad things were in the TX lege. I have spoken briefly with him a few times since then, and he gets my personal get donkey! endorsement as an all-around good guy. His race for district 137 will be a tough one this year, but he is one incumbent that deserves another term. You can read a brief background piece about him here and a longer piece about his electoral prospects here.
Scott Hochberg wrapup
There was a lot of love out there for Killer D Scott Hochberg. You can still show him some of that love today, since any day is Texas Tuesday if you want it to be. Thanks to everyone who spread…
