Two major political
groups on campus say members will devote more time
to local races, since statewide
contests are over for now.
About two million Texans
decided in primary elections
Tuesday who they want to
see face off in November
general elections.
Both the College Republicans and University Democrats did not endorse a candidate, but will rally behind
their respective parties’ primary winner.
“It was like the presidential election,” said Colt Ables,
Texas College Republicans
vice chairman.
“There were
conservatives that weren’t
for John McCain, but voted
for him anyway.
”
The College Republicans, who will support incumbent Gov.
Rick Perry for
governor, are now focusing
on future county and state
races as some members
have campaigned for Barbara Nash and Mary Louise
Garcia, who are running for
the 93rd Texas House disT H E U N I V E R S I T Y O F T E X A S A T A R L I N G T O N
