Armando Walle Endorsed by Dem TX House Leader

Walle and Montemayor Join Together to Fight the Craddick Cronies!

One of our Democratic Texas House leaders, State Rep. Lon Burnam of Ft. Worth, stepped up today and issued an endorsement of Democratic candidate Armando Walle, who is running to unseat "Craddick D" Kevin Bailey in House District 140. Burnam also endorsed two other challengers to Craddick D's.

"I am proud to publicly endorse Brian Thompson (HD 46 – Austin), Armando Walle (HD 140 – Houston), and Sandra Rodriguez (HD 36 – Hidalgo County)," said State Rep. Lon Burnam, "all of whom have shown remarkable courage by challenging Craddick Democrats. Each of these candidates is extremely viable. I hope to welcome each of them into the State Legislature next year and take three more votes away from the Republican Speaker."

Burnam said that Democratic voters have a clear choice on March 4. Democrats can vote for the status quo and help re-elect Craddick Democrats, or they can vote for change and send a clear message that Tom Craddick and his right-wing cronies are taking our state in the wrong direction.

"I represent the Democratic wing of the Democratic Party, not the Craddick wing of the Democratic Party, and so do the three Democrats I am endorsing today," said Burnam. "If we want to move Texas forward, we need change, and change starts by voting for Brian Thompson (HD 46 – Austin), Armando Walle (HD 140 – Houston), and Sandra Rodriguez (HD 36 – Hidalgo County) on March 4."

In addition to endorsing these three Democratic challengers today, Rep. Burnam has also committed to help each of them raise the funds they will need to be successful on March 4. Next week, Rep. Burnam will unveil details about a political action committee called "Too Close to Craddick" that he is supporting.
