Wanna Get Away?

From Burges Candidate Forum
The "Wanna Get Away" moment of this years campaign was brought to us courtesy of Rene Nunez, the Democratic nominee for the State Board of Education.

Nunez was at the Democratic Rally in the Valley this weekend and when he had the opportunity to speak, he urged everyone in the audience to press 5 of the ballot.

Pressing 5 means voting straight ticket...Republican!

He was immediately hissed and whistled at and realized the gaffe. He meant to say press 6 for straight ticket Democrat.

Poor guy felt really bad. He immediatley corrected himself and explained to the audience that in other parts of his district, which covers more areas than just the El Paso metro area, pressing 5 is voting straight ticket Democrat.
