Guys, you did amazingly great.  Glen is still working on the final numbers but it appears that you raised between $5,500 and $6,000.

That will do some damn good.  We covered all the counties we needed to cover and also helped us target some state representative races for people who need just a little extra help.

For example, you helped my my friend Cecil Webster, who is running for the state house.  Cecil and I have been friends for a decade and even went to the national convention together in 2012.  When we told Cecil that we had covered his district, he sent me this.

First, let me tell you a little about Cecil.  He is a retired Colonel in the United States Army and taught at West Point.  He is witty, smart, and determined.  Cecil is a gentleman farmer/rancher about 100 miles up the road from me on the way to Austin. Cecil’s lovely bride, Marsha, keeps him in line.

Juanita Jean,

I cannot thank you and your readers enough for your support of Texas voters, especially those in rural counties who are 65 and over and who are eligible to vote by mail.  Due to your very generous support, the senior citizens in the HD-13 counties in which I am running for state representative (Austin, Burleson, Colorado, Fayette, Grimes, Lavaca, and Washington) will now receive an application for vote by mail ballot.  This is great news for them, and for my campaign to ensure veterans have a real voice in the Texas Legislature.  For more detailed information about my campaign, please see my website at www.websterfortexas.com; to see what is going on day-to-day in my campaign, visit me on Facebook at “Cecil Webster for Texas State Representative.”  Again, thanks for making it possible for the voices of senior citizens to be heard in this election.

Cecil

Yeah, ya did good, folks.

Now we sit back and wait to see who wins the lottery.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.
