Knaupe Not to Run
By Karl-Thomas Musselman
One of the candidates that has grown on me in his time actually not running for anything, Gregg Knaupe (of City Council Place 3), appears to now be more or less officially out of the running for HD 47, Keel's open seat.
Austin sources tell me that Knaupe, after spending a year on the trail away from his family and especially his two young kids, plans to not jump into this one for what are actual, honest family reasons (the traditional 'out' for many candidates). I respect Gregg more than he knows and certainly feel that he will be well received at some future point here in Travis County should he set his eye on some other race.
Thanks for what you have brought to the table Gregg. Our party is grateful for sure, and I know that your children will be even more so to have you around as they grow up in these most amazing of times. Our inbox is always open to you, stay in touch.

Karl-Thomas,
Thanks for your kind comments. It was a tough decision, but one that I am happy with at this time in my life.
I do, however, look forward to taking an active role with you and all the BOR readers who care about getting our community and our state back on track.
Truly,
Gregg
