Juan Garcia Up Big in New Poll


by: Matt Glazer

Fri Aug 15, 2008 at 05:47 PM CDT


A new poll done by Jeff Smith's respected Opinion Analysts, Inc. shows Juan Garcia up by almost 10 points in House District 32.

48.4% say they will definitely vote Garcia with another 1.9% leaning that way.  Hunter has a combined support of 39.7%.

Garcia's campaign has raised more and spent less.  The July report has Garcia raising $401,872.09, spending $63,685.45, and maintaining $521,856.85.  Hunter on the other hand raised $300,712.22 ($100,000 less), spent $190,976.23 ($130,000 more) and only has $165,426.28 ($360,000 less) left on hand.

What did that get him?  He is down 10 points in the latest poll in House District 32.

Not to mention, Todd Hunter started running his first ad July 15 to significantly influence future polls.

This race is far from over, but it's starting to look like the Todd Hunter hype isn't panning out. Now it's up to us to be committed to this race.

Apparently there is a possible collaboration for a water conference between the University of Texas and the U of L. some time don;t have the details yet.


District 32 race (0.00 / 0)
As I said before (and the post was removed) the race is just beginning. The AG's office has been in San Patricio county to intimidate elderly voters under the guise of irregularities in mail-in balots. The TDP has apparently bailed on Garcia's strongest supporters (the people who won him the '06 race). They want to see how this plays out apparently, by which time the 200-300 voters will decide to stay home. This could be the difference in this very close race. The TDP needs to demonstrate their committment to these voters who have supported our candidates year in and year out.

Post Wasn't Deleted (0.00 / 0)
Our users rated a zero and hid it. That is why we call it user generated content and a community site.

Don't assume it's been deleted just because long time community members rated your comment a zero, and you can't see it.
