The widow of the late Democratic Lt. Gov. Bob Bullock has endorsed Dee Margo in the race for House District 78. She will also campaign with him next week, according to a release from the campaign.
Margo faces state Rep. Joe Moody, D-El Paso, in the election Nov. 2. Early voting has already started.
Here is the statement from Jan Bullock:
“I seldom get involved in political campaigns anymore, and only in the rarest of circumstances cross party lines. But this election is too important, and there is no doubt in my mind Texas needs more leaders like Dee Margo. Dee is best suited to deal with the issues facing El Paso and work with other leaders in El Paso and around the state to get the much needed funding to complete the Texas Tech Medical School. Dee is the best candidate to return civility to Austin. When my late husband was Lt. Governor it didn’t matter which political party followed your name, the fact we are Texans always came first. Dee understands this. Beneath it all, Dee is a proven leader that has worked with others no matter which party, to do big things for El Paso. We need leaders like Dee Margo, and that’s why he has my whole-hearted support.”

Mrs. Bullock should not disgrace her deceased husband's name with this drivel. He always kept her safely away from political matters, of which she knows nothing.

Bob Bullock stabbed Ann Richards in the back and betrayed the Democratic Party by getting into bed with George W. Bush, so no surprise that his widow would cozy up to a Republican.

Apparently the El Paso Times is as disconnected to El Paso as Dee Margo...
