Congratulations to (WAD-endorsed) Mayor Lee Leffingwell and City Council members
Mike Martinez, Bill Spellman, and Sheryl Cole on their re-election!
Next big event: Primary election: Tuesday, May 29. Early voting has already started.
WAD ENDORSEMENTS:
U.S. Senate: Paul Sadler
Travis County District Attorney: Rosemary Lehmberg
Travis County Sheriff: Greg Hamilton
Tax Assessor-Collector: Bruce Elfant
167th District Judge: Efrain de la Fuente and David Wahlberg.
(We made a joint endorsement in the 167th back when there were 3 candidates)
WAD does not endorse in races outside of our geographic area.
Sole endorsements need at least 60% support from member votes in that race; dual endorsements result when
2 alternatives receive more than 40% support and there are more than 2 alternatives. Bylaws Art. V.
WAD members also endorsed all unopposed Democratic candidates.
