Wendy Davis

Best of luck to Wendy Davis. She'll need it, considering the long-standing endemic corruption in Austin that always seems to benefit Republicans. Not to mention the pro-GOP redistricting that's been a feature of Texas politics for SO long, and the Lone Star State's unconstitutional Voter ID law, among the most restrictive in the country. It WOULD be exhilarating to see a Democrat seize the governor's office down there, but Texans may have to wait a long time to accomplish that elusive goal. http://www.naacpldf.org/press-release/scotus-fails-stop-discriminatory-tx-photo-id-law-upcoming-elections http://www.politico.com/story/2014/11/wendy-davis-battleground-texas-elections-112402.html
