| In 17 general election endorsements so far, the Daily Texan has endorsed 13 Democrats. Of half the endorsements going to non-Democrats, no Democrat is running (CD 21, CCA 9).
Here are the endorsed Democrats:
- Rick Noriega, US Senate
- Larry Joe Doherty, US Congressional District 10
- Lloyd Doggett, US Congressional District 25
- Brian Ruiz, US Congressional Districct 31
- Valinda Bolton, TX House District 47
- Donna Howard, TX House District 48
- Mark Strama, TX House District 50
- Diana Maldonado, TX House District 52
- Eddie Rodriguez, TX House District 51
- Jim Jordan, TX Supreme Court Chief Justice
- Linda Yanez, TX Supreme Court Place 8
- Susan Strawn, TX Criminal Court of Appeals Place 3
- Jim Coronado, 427th District Judge
Perhaps the oddest endorsement is Criminal Court of Appeals, Place 4. With a Republican incumbent and a Democratic challenger, the Texan decided to endorse the Libertarian, Dave Howard. Apparently he "has strong criticisms of the court with which we could not agree more." |
