I'm wondering if this is just a normal old age retirement or Gene thought maybe his district wants an actual hispanic to represent them nowadays?

It's a 71-25 Hillary district, so nothing to worry about there.

He's been in office 25 years. And being in congress is a miserable job these days.

With him retiring and Beto running for Senate, Lloyd Doggett could likely be the only white Democrat in the Texas congressional delegation.

I think Laura Moser has a pretty good shot of beating Culberson in TX-07.

She would be the second white woman to be elected to the House from Texas and the first to be elected as a Democrat.

NO!!! I love Gene Green .

We have a much stronger candidate than her in the race.

Who?

Moser has been pretty involved in grassroots movements, and so has a lot of support from that.
