Dem commissioners endorse John Sharp; Eversole lashes out
In a two-reporter (!) blog post, the Chronicle reports that Democratic Harris County Commissioners Sylvia Garcia and El Franco Lee endorsed John Sharp (and not Mayor Bill White) for the expected U.S. Senate race. The two Chron scribes link to a press release from the Sharp campaign, which claims the commissioners offered their news together after the latest Commissioners Court meeting.
KTRK-13's Miya Shay has an amusing observation about that joint "announcement" on her blog:
Now, I was there, and Lee and Garcia didn't stand there and make any pronouncements. I guess that's why they have press releases.
Whoops!
Other interesting Commissioners Court news came from Commissioner Jerry Eversole in response to questioning from KTRK-13's Wayne Dolcefino. Their exchange is reported by the Chronicle's Mike Tolson. Eversole told Dolcefino that he will not be resigning his seat, despite the ethics problems KTRK and Dolcefino helped bring to light.
