Burnt Orange Report karltm@gmail.com <p>We&#39;re not done yet with Elections in Texas. With an expected 76-74 Republican controlled statehouse we have a chance on December 16th to help narrow the margin in the state senate by one more vote to 18-13. That race of course, pits former Gubernatorial nominee Chris Bell against GOP nominee Joan Huffman in a special runoff election.</p> <p><b>Today I&#39;m kicking off a weeklong effort in support of Chris Bell&#39;s runoff election on <a href="http://www.burntorangereport.com">Burnt Orange Report</a>. With Early Voting this week and Election Day next Tuesday, we&#39;re also announcing our second $1000 Burnt Orange for Bell online fundraiser.</b> </p> <p>Last time, we went on strike and you reached that goal in one day. We&#39;re not striking this time, but I&#39;m more than confident our community can raise $1000 this week for Bell. So if you haven&#39;t given (and it&#39;s the only race in town so you should), donate to Bell today.</p> public true 4000.00 53 5000.00 Chris Bell false TX-SD-17 chris bell 100000.00 301711.27 1425 http://www.chrisbell.com https://secure.actblue.com/contribute/entity/20795 4000.00 53
