Lamar is soooo gerrymandered--most of his voters are either: rich (he goes through some of the richest areas of San Antonio), white or rural. He's been in congress since 1983.

His district does have a very active Indivisible group. They are very frustrated with him.

He is pompous in a Paul Ryan kind of way...he knows he can get away with whatever....

It would be great to unseat him.

I think unseating Will Hurd is more likely.
