Secretary of State Asked To Declare Candidate Ineligible

   Texas Secretary of State Hope Andrade has been asked to declare long-time State Board of Education member David Bradley ineligible to serve on the Board should he win reelection to the body November 4.

   A formal letter has been sent to Sec. Andrade by Houston attorney Chad Dunn.  In it, he details the fact that Bradley has not lived in the district he represents - as required by state law - since at least 2000.  (SBOE District 7 includes Galveston, Jefferson and Chambers Counties, a portion of Brazoria County, and a large portion of East and South Harris County.)

   Bradley has alienated even his fellow Republicans with his extremist views.  His Democratic challenger is Laura Ewing, a Friendswood educator who is running an aggressive campaign against the long-time incumbent who was first elected in 1996.

   Ewing -- who has been endorsed by the Houston Chronicle, Beaumont Enterprise and many others groups -- is currently airing a hard-hitting television ad that calls for Bradley to be "expelled" from the School Board.  The ad can be viewed at www.ewingfortexas.com.

Citizens understand that this year's presidential election is as critical as any in U. S.  history. But it is no exaggeration to say that there is one race that's every bit as critical to Texans. Southeast Texans will decide a race that will affect all of Texas and its future.

The State Board of Education is in a mess and is doing harm to Texas children. This elected body is under the control of a radical rogue faction. They recently passed a set of English Language Arts and Reading standards that is so flawed educators say it will damage Texas children.  And the Texas House Committee on Public Education has intervened.
