The Express-News endorses State Rep. Mike Villarreal, District 123 for re-election and State Rep. District 118 Carlos Uresti for State Senate Distirct 19.
The endorsements read:
Democrat Mike Villarreal continues to serve District 23 well and merits re-election.
In the State Senate District 19 contest, Carlos Uresti is far the better person for the job. An eight year veteran of the Texas House, Uresti spearheaded legislation that addressed severe deficiencies in the state's Child Protective Services agency.
His efforts ushered in necessary changes that will help protect the state's most vulnerable citizens. Uresti know how to navigate the often choppy political waters in Austin and would continue to represent the Senate district well.
Voters will notice two elections pitting Uresti against his opponent. The first is the remainder of the current term vacated by former Sen. Frank Madla and the second is for a full term. Voters can cast ballots in both races.
