Today was the first day for candidates to file for the Texas Republican Primary. Cahnman's Musings received invitations from multiple campaigns. We had to work.
After filing, Team Abbott held their first official block-walking. While Cahnman's Musings didn't attend, we did speak to several volunteers at RPT headquarters around 2:30 pm. According to multiple volunteers, Team Abbott knocked on 6000 doors today in Northeast Austin.
This is encouraging. Battleground Texas' strategy to win statewide requires them to run up the scoreboard in Travis County. An early investment in Travis County indicates that Team Abbott understands the territory.
Update: Thank Goodness for Twitter; Team Abbott confirms....
@SarahFloerke Multiple Volunteers told me @AbbottCampaign knocked on 6000 doors today in Travis County....correct?!?

Texas Gubernatorial candidate Wendy Davis received endorsements from Texas State Senator Leticia Van De Putte and San Antonio TX Mayor Julian Castro….along with the baggage concerning an ongoing criminal conspiracy they bring into the spotlight.
ReplyDeleteCandidates, the media and others are being provided with an audio recording of a July 21, 2010 meeting with Senator Leticia Van De Putte and information that is referenced in Court documents submitted to US District Judge Rodriguez concerning Free Speech - Freedom of Assembly lawsuit 5:13-cv-00051 where City of San Antonio TX Mayor Julian Castro ( Obama campaign co-chairman) , city attorney Michael Bernard ( brother of White House Social Secretary Jeremy Bernard), SAPD Chief William McManus and others are named for their efforts to conceal long-term public/police corruption with an illegal, unconstitutional criminal trespass warning banning participation in public meetings in violation of the Texas Open Meeting Act , the Constitution and other laws/regulations for almost four years.
The audio recording reveals that former City of San Antonio TX Telecommunications Manager John E. Foddrill Sr. , Senator Van De Putte and staff member Brent Turner reviewed a report detailing the theft of upwards of $200,000 by City of San Antonio TX IT Manager Jose Medina and vendor Isabel Gonzaba (IG Communications) via an illegal four-year mail/wire fraud scheme. They reviewed a report detailing the fraud upon the court (February 2009 - 57th district court- Judge Arteaga) by City CIO Richard Varn, City IT Director Hugh Miller, attorney Mark Kosanovich (Fitzpatrick & Kosanovich), attorney Malinda Gaul, asst. City attorney Deborah Klein, Texas Ranger Hank Whitman and others to conceal the crimes. They reviewed an illegal, unconstitutional criminal trespass ban barring entry into City Hall and public meetings violating the Constitution and the Texas Open Meeting Act. They reviewed published documents revealing an ongoing cover-up by the DA where the Senator comments that Bexar County District Attorney Susan Reed did indeed have jurisdiction when her office was publishing letters falsely stating that they could do nothing unless called upon to investigate by the FBI / Texas Rangers thus stalling any investigation into the crimes. They reviewed HUD-OIG case hl-10-0465 where City persons were allowed by agent Victoria Marquez and her superiors to submit known fraudulent documents to conceal the criminal activity and where material witnesses were deliberately excluded from being interviewed. ….. Despite reviewing reams of evidence revealing years of fraud/theft, the TOMA violations, the Constitutional violations and an ongoing criminal conspiracy to defraud our government / taxpayers the Senator looked away and helped hide the ongoing criminal conspiracy.
