NEWS for MEMBERS

LWV-CC GEARS UP FOR THE 2012 PRIMARY AND VOTERS GUIDE
There will be 31 candidates in Nueces County running for office for the May 29, 2012, Primary. The Republican Party will have three contested races: Congressional District 27, the 214th District Court and constable for Precinct 3. Democrats will have contested races for U.S. Representative, sheriff, tax assessor-collector, County Court-at- Law 3, Justice of the Peace Pct.5, Place 1 and constable, Pct 5. Both parties have contested races for party chair this time.
The biggest change for Nueces County is that we are the most southern county in Congressional District 27 now. The boundaries go as far north as Bastrop as you can see by the map included in the April VOTER.
Questionnaires have been sent to all the candidates in contested races for inclusion in the Voters Guide. Chris Garcia is working on the layout for that publication. We expect to get the Voters Guide out before Early Voting begins on May 14. Early voting will conclude on May 25. We will need volunteers to distribute the Voters Guides.
Matilda Saenz is organizing the Candidates Forum to be held on April 30 at City Hall beginning at 6 pm. She will need help so please plan to volunteer.
