Message from Congressional candidate Candace Duval

I want to give a big Texas-size thank you for all your support.  I am proud and humbled by the honor of being elected as the Democratic candidate for U.S. Congress District 21.  I couldn’t have done it without your support and I’m happy to share this resounding victory with each of you and all the Democrats who voted in this primary.

This journey began when Texas gained 4 new congressional districts. Following a childhood dream to run for office, I knew that this was the year to go for it and it was a viable opportunity to actually WIN.

After traveling 9 counties and collecting almost double the amount of petitions needed to get on the ballot in March, I knew I already was victorious.  Even at the 11th hour when a veteran campaigner with a highly recognized name, .

The hard work paid off as I received the endorsement of 13 out of 13 Democratic clubs, the Austin Chronicle and the Burnt Orange Report.    

As we now turn our focus to the general election, I will continue to emphasize that the people of our district deserve a Congressperson who will put serving the needs of the great people of Central Texas above partisan political bickering and high dollar special interest. 

Now, we roll up our sleeves a little higher and get back to work. It’s a challenge, but I know it’s one we can meet and accomplish together by building a campaign that reaches out to the community and lets them know that they do have a choice in November.  

If you are willing to roll up your sleeves with me, it will take a substantial amount of time, effort and resources. It won’t be easy but I’m committed to seeing this through and I am asking for your sustained support so I can support you in Congress.

We have launched a new Sustaining Members Committee to make it easy for you to offer your support and recruit friends and family.  Please sign up today to contribute $5, $15, $25, $50 or more per month to become a Sustaining Committee Member.
Serving with Heart deep in the Heart of Texas!
