Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott is running for Governor.
That means Texas will need to elect a new Attorney General. The three
candidates in the race are Barry Smitherman, Ken Paxton, and Dan Branch.
I have already written a couple of articles on Barry Smitherman,
who is a strong Christian conservative. Now you can see Barry Smitherman
yourself, along with the other two candidates Ken Paxton and Dan Branch, as
they discuss the issues. More info about
the forum below.
The following information about the candidate forum is from Grassroots
America:
