(Community Matters) I’m hearing it’s possible Joaquin Castro & Lloyd Doggett may not be running against each other after all. Seems to be a lot of betting that CD-25 (Doggett’s existing district) will regain more of Travis County, a strong 54 – 55% Democratic majority – that is, a safe seat that Lloyd could run & win.
This could leave CD 35 with a sliver of East Austin extending down to Bexar. This would be best of all worlds – Lloyd able to run in his existing district and Joaquin stepping up as an additional Democratic, Hispanic congressional representative, bridging Bexar and Travis counties.
