Where Was Gandara During Map Vote?
If you watched the County Commissioner's Court meeting, and don't we all, then you noticed that for a crucial vote on the maps conversation, embattled County Commissioner Willie Gandara was not present.
That got me curious.
So I called around and played my own version of a popular game...Where's Willie?
Turns out, the vote was taken near the end of the Commissioner's Court meeting, between 2:15 and almost 3:00pm.
I noticed that he filed to run for HD 75 yesterday. So I called Democratic Party Headquarters and it turns out that is around the time Gandara went to go file his papers to run for HD 75.
I know what you're wondering.
Couldn't he have gone some other time during the day yesterday? Yes Grasshopper, you are correct. The filing deadline was 6pm. Gandara could've still done his job and represented his community AND filed for office all in the same day.
