Biscoe needs an opponent
Travis County taxpayers deserve a choice. We need a viable opponent to run against Travis County Judge Sam Biscoe. Just weeks ago, Biscoe's expected opponent, Daryl Slusher, decided not to run. So Biscoe currently has no opponent for the Democratic primary.
At every turn, Biscoe has made some seriously poor decisions on behalf of Travis County taxpayers. Biscoe voted to raise Travis County taxes just weeks ago. After Biscoe raised taxes, he gave himself a raise so that his 2006 salary would be $95,000. Biscoe voted in 2004 and 2005 to toll roads that we've already paid for. He reappointed Central Texas Regional Mobility Authority board member Johanna Zmud after state Comptroller Carole Keeton Strayhorn found conflicts and asked Zmud to resign. Biscoe voted for and gave hundreds of thousands of county tax dollars as seed money to the mobility authority.
Travis County taxpayers deserve a choice for this important position. The deadline to file is Jan. 2.

Sal,
Saw your letter to the editor, you really crack me up! Trolling for candidates in the newspaper is really a new one.
I bet it works.

Another one of Judge Biscoe's "seriously poor decisions" was the adoption of the Lie, Cheat and Steal electronic voting machines. He accomplished this in the same manner as NAFTA Corridor/Double Tax Toll Road House Bill 3588 was accomplished -- CLOSED QUICK and DIRTY.
