District 1 Field of Candidates Grows to 4
Abraham Peinado has filed to run for City Council District 1.
That brings Representative Lily's opponents to 3, which is a total of 4 candidates in the field.
Lily has been seen as vulnerable for some time now, but the large field of candidates isn't helpful towards the idea of unseating her considering they will all split the anti-Lily vote. All she has to do is to get 50+1 and she can avoid a run off.
If she ends up in the run-off election though, she's in big trouble.
Don't know much about the new candidate but already seems to be more formidable than the other two. Besco is toast and has a bad name within his own party. Running against so quickly after losing so recently makes it look like he just wants a title.
Hinojosa is not a viable candidate. He has no base, will likely implode along the way, and has a hard time communicating effectively, though I'm told by several candidates that he spends a great deal of time tracking down cell phone numbers of other candidates running in other races and talking their ear off.
Peinado is young and is a business owner. He's in insurance. Seems like he might be someone to watch as the campaign starts to flesh out.
