Fenenbock To Announce Congressional Bid Next Week

Sources close to the campaign have indicated that embattled EPISD School Board President Dori Fenenbock is set to announce her bid for a congressional run next week.

She would likely face County Judge Veronica Escobar who announced on Monday that she was not seeking reelection. That was an almost solid indication that her intention is to run for the seat being vacated by Congressman Beto O'Rourke.

Fenenbock is said to be looking at June 11th for the announcement date.

Fenenbock found herself in a controversy when Superintendent Juan Cabrera allegedly offered City Rep candidate Shane Haggerty a campaign contribution and solicited his support for Fenenbock in the same conversation.

That led to Fenenbock stating that she wanted all media communications to go through her.

Rumor has it that the long-time Republican is going to actually run as a Democrat. The Democratic Primary will be held in March 2018.

From this point forward, just about everything they do will be scrutinized and have some political consequence, good or bad, for each of them.
