Raul Alvarez SWEEPS Travis County Democratic Party's Mega-Forum


by: Raul Alvarez for County Commissioner

Thu Jan 28, 2010 at 11:08 PM CST


While our campaign had previously garnered the endorsements of:

The Austin Firefighter's Association
The Austin Hispanic Firefighter's Association
The Austin African American Firefighter's Association

as well as Former Mayor Will Wynn
          Mayor Pro-Tem Mike Martinez

among many many others - the last 48 hours have been extremely exciting for us.

last night we received the endorsements of:

Former Mayor Pro Tem Betty Dunkerly
Council Member Randi Shade

as well as both the

The Sierra Club
and
(Cap-Metro) Amalgamated Transit Union 1091

And most exciting of all we swept tonight's Travis County Democratic Party Mega-Forum by receiving the endorsements of the

Tejano Democrats
Capital City Young Democrats
Texas Environmental Democrats
Northeast County Democrats
Capital Area Asian American Democrats

"I am extremely honored and extremely grateful to receive the endorsement of these institutions, and I feel this shows the community's desire for new leadership and new direction." - Raul Alvarez

A Sweep? (0.00 / 0)
Wait, according to the list that BOR put up, Margaret Gomez received the Black Austin Democrats Endorsement and Capital Area Progressives gave no endorsement, so no, not a sweep. Are the Black Austin Democrats not significant enough to mention, and the ones that he did win more important? Funny that he did not get the South Austin Democrats endorsement which Gomez already earned. I would think that the South Austin Dems would be of more importance in that precinct, than, oh, say, the Northeast Travis County Democrats, no? And now Alvarez is having a fundraiser hosted by representatives from the valley?

Boy, Alvarez is really good at getting people who can't vote for him to say that they would...I personally think he should aim for the convicted felons vote next.
