It was behind my T...A more than fair enough answer. It was behind my Tweet Friday afternoon to CBS Austin about asking both candidates about turnout.<br /><br />And, as I noted, on Valdez, for me, in part, if I undervote her, it's because I don't want to reward Hinojosa. In turn ... that in part depends on if he remains TDP chair or not.Gadflyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13075757287807731373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7532871.post-24838269301635288942018-05-13T16:48:26.878-05:002018-05-13T16:48:26.878-05:00I haven't decided, and there's a few thing...I haven't decided, and there's a few things over the next six months yet to develop. No need to infer someone else's decision that's somewhat murky anyway.<br /><br />For the reasons you cite, Valdez <i>almost</i> won my vote next week, but her answer on mass incarceration wasn't just weak but unacceptable. "Community policing" isn't going to do shit about that problem. At this point, if I vote for her in the runoff it will solely be to block White.<br /><br />It might be worth waiting to the end of the EV period just to see if she can avoid saying anything that might make me regret voting for her. On the other hand, this race isn't about winning but helping the poor Donkeys elsewhere down the ballot, and only Valdez IMO does that. Can I pinch my nose hard enough to help her get on the November ballot? I don't know yet.PDiddiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05851660342241127485noreply@blogger.com
