Tim Collins to Appear on Congressional Ballot
 |
| From The Lion Star Blog |
Tim Collins has been actively soliciting signatures to try to get his name on the ballot for the November Congressional Election for a couple of months now. Today Collins collected the last few confirmed signatures needed to appear as a write-in candidate on the ballot.
He will be facing the incumbent Democratic Congressman Sylvestre Reyes and Republican nominee Tim Besco.
Collins' efforts may be in vain. The State of Texas allows a spot for write-in candidates on the ballot, but requires the candidate to get a certain amount of valid signatures before the votes for a write-in candidate will be counted as votes.
Had his actual name appeared on the ballot, I think there was a real chance for him to received more votes than the Republican candidate Tim Besco.
