Kennedy and Lyndon LaRouche, even at the expense of happily putting herself at odds with the now discredited ‘mainstream’ leadership of her party.

Michael Ray Harris

Criminal Defense Lawyer

I would like to see the Attorney General’s office get more involved in investigating cases with the Innocence Project where people were wrongfully convicted. I would also like to see the AG’s office tell federal law enforcement agents there is a section in the Texas Penal Code governing how much force they could use.

Matt Pina Political Scientist Matt has studied how government works and has seen up close in his many hours of community service how policies are implemented. He sees government as treating symptoms of the problems and not effectively addressing the underlying problems.

He has identified places like pawn shops or BBQ joints that failed to register their scales for accuracy. He increased fuel pump inspections for pump accuracy and fuel quality and every inspected fuel pump is now checked for those illegal credit card skimmers.

Kim Olson

Farmer/Retired U.S. Air Force Colonel Kim’s belief is that representative government should reflect the people’s interests, and the only way that happens is by walking farms and fields. Land, water, and all our state’s natural resources, are necessary to sustain life. Farmers and ranchers are stewards of these resources and need our support to sustain their farms. Strengthening our agricultural sector means supporting prosperity for our entire state and ensuring a safe and nutritious food supply supports a healthy economy and quality of life for Texas families.

Richard Carpenter Profession Unknown Carpenter warns that a water crisis is coming, and agriculture in the Rio Grande Valley and elsewhere is in trouble if the issue isn’t addressed. He said half the state from the Panhandle to Brownsville already suffers from water shortages, and that the population is expected to nearly double during the next 25 years. The solution won’t be simple or cheap, but at stake is whether Texas will be able to feed its next generation.

In the process, she has repeatedly proven that sensible regulations, careful listening and plain talk can foster innovation that has solidified Texas leadership in the energy sector. Christi has advocated for recycling in the oilfields, helping to drive the percentage of reclaimed water upwards, an essential achievement in a state enduring a multi-year drought.

Roman McAllen

City Preservation Officer The TTRC is the organization that is supposed to assure us that the energy we use in Texas is not killing us. The cronyism of the TTRC makes it very hard to elect people who will study, represent, and advocate for surface rights owners, local governments, and the public’s right to raise families in an environment free of unnecessary pollution. If you believe that regulation is part of a civilized US, I hope that you will support me in my quest to be one vote on the commission that is not bought and paid for by the industry.

Mike Wright

Retired from Business Related to the Oil Industry My goal as a Texas Railroad Commissioner would be to allow the regulated industries to grow in a safe and responsible manner and to use risk management to minimize property and other losses such as the environment. As a candidate for the Texas Railroad Commission, I am actively researching issues that affect the growth of industries and the environmental challenges that growth must mitigate. I have identified the following issues: Transparency | Water Recycling | Operator Responsibility

He received national acclaim by refusing to remove a painting of the Ten Commandments from his courtroom and defeated a related lawsuit by liberal activists.

R. K. Sandill

Attorney / Judge, 127th Civil District Court - elected 2008 Our state Supreme Court increasingly caters to an extreme, special interest agenda and is ignoring its duty to the nearly 28 million Texans it is elected to serve. On issues from public school finance to equal protection under the law, the Court has failed to do its job. It is time for a change. I am running to restore an independent voice to our state’s highest judicial body and to focus on the rule of law, rather than a fringe ideological agenda.
