Local Political Blogger Interview...The District Attorney's Race...Early Stats Smell of Run-off..

I spent part of the afternoon being interviewed by Ray Pedraza of KGBT Channel 4, for a piece he was writing about local bloggers. For being so nervous, I think I did pretty good for a first television interview. Ray's a great guy, and I'd like to thank him for making the interview as comfortable as possible. One of the questions he asked revolved around the Hidalgo County race for District Attorney. I told him that I felt Rene Guerra alienated a lot of voters because of the Irene Garza case. I felt that Alma Garza was his closest opposition, but the fact that she would be splitting the vote with Mauro Reyna, would hurt her chances for taking Rene Guerra on in a run-off. In the end, it would be a tough fight for Rene Guerra, but he'd pull it off because of the split vote. Currently, Rene Guerra has 46% of the vote, Alma Garza has 31%. The night's still early, and local political analysts are starting to call this one a run-off, but we'll see. Again, big thanks to Ray Pedraza, and his crew at Channel 4.

Its looks like we have lost the county . So what can we expect of our tax money to bring? Hey i understand that JD was going to give a raise to everyone in the county for their vote @ our expense. Is that what it takes to win?

Stop your crying. Booo Hoooo

Ramonsita is OUT! Thank God!

Ramonsita's baby boy is a goner too. He lost the first time he tried and he lost again. Go cry with Gringo and tell him to wait to the next time.

Do you think County empolyees don't deserve a pay raise? You don't think they work as hard has anyone else? I would not want you as a boss.

P.S. The entire State of Texas voted on raising the minimum wage. Because of this a rippel affect will happen. Check your business facts!

I believed that County Employees should get pay raises but not because they voted for him, but because they work hard and deserve it.

Not all county employees are like Omar.

Last year all County employees received a 3% cost of living adjustment, the year before 3% and the year before 3/5/7% depending on their salary range. County minimum wage is $8 hour, plus benefits that are not available in the private sector. I'd say they're doing well.

Don't get me wrong, some are shinning examples of hard work and dedication and are committed to protecting the tax payers, others don't deserve to be there and are yet to put in a hard days work! As long as there is politics you have these bozos in bloated payrolls, however there are enough do-gooders to keep the County running well.

This is the reality!

Oh please what is it with you jd and rick supporters talking about facts. What facts are you talking about. What do you mean by "forget intelligently, let's just saw with FACTS!"

You're probably one of the many whose soul (vote) was bought with 20 dollars and a taco.
