Today is the filing deadline for the Democratic Primary, and, with only 58 days until Election Day, I am proud of the progress my campaign has made so far.
I've received endorsements from six public safety associations, including the state's largest, the Combined Law Enforcement Association of Texas (CLEAT). I am humbled to have earned the support of CLEAT once again, as well as the Travis County Sheriffs Officers Association, Travis County Sheriffs Law Enforcement Association, Austin/Travis County EMS Employee Association, Austin Police Association, and the Travis County Firefighters Association.
I also have the support of the only three elected officials to have endorsed in this race: Travis County Judge
Sam Biscoe, Austin City Councilman
Bill Spelman, and Constable
Richard McCain. Additionally, I have been endorsed by former Travis County Judge
Bill Aleshire, former Texas Land Commissioner
Garry Mauro, and former Texas Comptroller
John Sharp.
After fifteen years as county commissioner, I am so proud to have the support of both the current president of University Democrats
Melessa Rodriguez and the immediate past president
Jimmy Talarico.
With more than three decades of Democratic activism in my hometown of Austin, I am proud to have the support of many Democratic activists, including Precinct 424 Democratic chair
Walter Timberlake. To view my full supporter list,

There are less than two months until Election Day, and just over a month until early voting begins. The support our campaign has enjoyed has been great, and I look forward to continuing to work hard as I visit and listen to voters across Precinct 4 about how county government can better serve them.
