We've got some good candidates for statewide office, albeit not necessarily the most heavily-supported ones here (DUer David Van Os ran unopposed). Hopefully Radnofsky beats perennial candidate Gene Kelly (no, he can't dance) in the runoff.

We went 1 for 2 in the Dem vs. Rep-running-as-dem sweepstakes, one election undecided: former Bush campaigner Henry Cuellar kept his seat in US House Dist. 28 by winning the Dem primary. Frank Madla ("When I get to the Capitol, I lock the Democratic Party in my trunk") lost his primary to Carlos Uresti. DINO Al Edwards went into a runoff in his race.
