It's with sincere trepidation that I begin this entry.
"Be careful what toes you dance on," my wise old friend said when I got into this fight. I can tell you now that this election is much bigger than just a Commissioners Race in Williamson County.
The rats in this race are ravenous, uncivil engineers of profit and plunder. This is the no-bid capitol of Texas and our cohort contracts abound.
I am going to list a who's who' of Political Contributors to the campaign of my opponent, Valerie Covey. I withheld listing donors that are residents of Precinct3. Ms Covey has many fine Americans from precinct 3 that gave their money to someone they believed would hold up the values of the Republican Party. Ms Covey received almost $50000 from interests and individuals outside of Precinct 3. She did not receive half that number from within her own precinct. It will be up to them, primarily, to determine if Valerie should remain in control of our precincts input on the county budget and road bonds. Voters in the precinct will determine if her voting record represents the citizens of precinct 3 or the developers and road engineers that fund her campaign. They can buy lots of signs, but folks that live on Lake Travis can't vote here.
Friends, neighbors, and residents of precinct 3. This isn't meant to be smear politics. These records are public domain. The names don't always tell the whole story. Sometimes there are faces and impressions behind the name that must be explained further. A brief attempt at the background of the donor and the relevance of the donation will be attempted. These are in no particular order.
1) I'll fill in this blank later in the campaign.
2) Steve Kallman - $1700 Toll Road Engineer No Bid Contract recipient of CTRMA..Lives on Lake Travis.
3) Carter and Burgess PAC $750 TRANS TEXAS CORRIDOR Engineers. Direct Connections to this PAC proves, without a doubt, that our commissioners are pro-TTC.
4) Bill Gunn III -- $1000 A director with TXDOT. Why would a state employee give so much money to a county candidate.? Stinks to high Heaven.
5) Chiang, Patel, Yerby -- $500 Trans Texas Corridor engineers that received a no-bid contract for millions to study and map the "possible" 29 Expansion, the Cross County Corridor. Big Donor of Rick Perry and toll road consultants.
6)Fullbright and Jaworski $750-- Houston Attorneys

11) Smith, Robertson, Elliot, and Glen $1000 Austin attorneys
12)Unnamed Local Engineer $2000 Road and civil Engineers. Georgetown Firm. Still, is it OK for commissioners to receive contributions from firms or people they will be considering for million dollar projects?

There it is. In black, white, and GREEN.
Now, who do you think Incumbent Republican County Commissioner Valerie Covey represents? And let's not forget Lisa Birkman. Ms Birkman's war chest is dotted with many of the same names.
Why do so many Trans Texas Corridor consulting, engineering, and construction firms give thousands and thousands of dollars to your county commissioners?
Ask the question. Do these women work for us, the citizens of Williamson County? Or does Valerie Covey and Lisa Birkman represent the road engineers, builders, and consultants of the toll roads and the Trans Texas corridor.?
Ask the people along Highway 29 or the residents of Liberty Hill.
Ask yourself on November 4th.

I have included videos concerning the Trans Texas Corridor. Watch them. We have to stand our ground now. Right now. If we fail, it will be too late.
