I don't her, but I read her profile in the Dallas Morning News and she looked to me like she was highly qualified.

There are too many votes out to place Rogers over Scherr. The question is whether Alameel breaks 50% and he just slipped below 48%.

the data already posted on the SOS page. It looks like she gained about 2,000 more in El Paso county that aren't on the SOS page either, so I doubt that Scherr will close the gap.

it might have helped if Maxey had run ANY ads in Houston. I saw zero. I don't know about the other big cities. But I didn't see any ads for Rogers either.

No doubt Alameel will defeat Rogers on May 2 in the run-off. It will be an uphill climb to unseat Cornyn however.

She had the best web ads I've ever seen. I'm very disappointed, but I think she's got a great future ahead of her and look forward to see what she'll do next. If it weren't for that stupid Larouchie and the even stupider people who voted for mer, Maxey Scherr would be in a runoff.
