Several progressives face challenges in their first bids for reelection, while the business groups are once again flexing influence.
District 9: Prop A rocks Courage’s reelection bid has faced many tough races, and seemed like a shoo-in for a fourth and final term. This race came onto our radar during early voting, however, when District 9 experienced a surge of voters turning out to oppose Proposition A.
Courage is against the proposal, as noted prominently on his campaign material. He’s also run for office before as a Democrat, and represents the only council district that gave Gov. Greg Abbott its support in the midterm. Some strategists say the backlash against Proposition A could ultimately hurt candidates like Courage, who also need the support of Democratic voters, who haven’t turned out in the same numbers as past years.
