Wendy Davis to announce gubernatorial decision Oct. 3
Source: Fort Worth Star-Telegram
After weeks of pondering which office to seek, Fort Worth Democratic state Sen. Wendy Davis will announce on Oct. 3 whether shes running for governor.
Theres one question Ive gotten quite often in the past few months, Davis wrote in an email to supporters. Whats next?
On Oct. 3, Ill be answering that question, she wrote. I truly appreciate all the work that you my grassroots team have done for me thus far. And Im excited about what we can do together in the future.
The question at hand is whether she will run for re-election in Senate District 10 or for governor.

That is where the power is.
The Governor just signs stuff.
Still be nice to have a Democrat and woman back.
