Happy Hour 282: Johnny Garcia, Progress Texas-Endorsed Candidate For CD 35

Yes, it's rare for Progress Texas' board to issue an endorsement in a Democratic runoff after early voting has already begun - but the situation in CD 35, situated on the eastern range of the San Antonio area, is a bona fide emergency. Not only is there a strong candidate in lifelong law enforcement professional Johnny Garcia, but his opponent Maureen Galindo - yes, a Democrat - has proven herself a highly flawed option, while Republican money to the tune of almost $1 million has flowed into her campaign. Why would Republicans want Galindo to win this badly? Because they know she can't beat them in November. The state and the nation needs to know about Johnny Garcia and what's at stake in this race - thus, our endorsement, and this chance to get to know him.Learn more about Johnny Garcia and his run for Congress at https://www.votejohnnygarcia.com/.Thanks for listening!
