Quoted: It’s also strange that all news reports don’t list if he is a democrat or republican. That's because all municipal and board elections in Texas are nonpartisan. Meaning you can be a Democrat, Republican, etc, you just don't run as that political parties candidate. |

Someone has forgotten to tell the candidates this. They may not have “party names” listed on them but several make damn sure to tell you who they are retested as or align with. I know in Austin they have no issues saying they are part of the Green Party. The whole nonpartisan game is BS in larger areas in Texas and most know it. |

Twenty years in DFW and I've never seen a campaign sign for a city or school board election with any political party affiliation on it. I wish it weren't that way....'cause we wouldn't have Dinkins Light as mayor of Plano.

Take a drive in Austin sometime as it’s interesting how they identify themselves on signs while “staying non partisan” It’s a whole different world there. Maybe people should also look at the candidates social media page as it will become very clear what they are if things like a hammer and sickle or fist on a sign are not enough. |

Of course Austin is like that, its nothing new.

In Wilco the Republicans put Republican on their signs, Democrats don’t. The city council, school board, mayors don’t of course but many put conservative.
I wish the school board, city council people would put their party on their signs, both offices are where a Dem will try to get a foot hold to go up the food chain. |
