Politics. Texas: Capitol Annex Asks Candidates for Essay

My fellow TEXAdS associate over at the Capitol Annex has asked for the candidates of CD-28 to write a 100 word essay:

To all candidates in CD-28 (yes, even you Henry Cuellar), and in the interest of fairness being a nice guy, if you email me a 100-word-or-less snippit about why voters should vote for you, I’ll give all three of ya’ll “airtime” (in different posts) on the Annex.

Of course there’s always a catch to these things:

The catch: the piece cannot be written by a staffer (i.e., I want each candidate to write at the bottom of the email (in these exact words, no less), “Hey, I’m Henry Cuellar/Victor Morales/Ciro Rodriguez, and I actually wrote this.” Otherwise, it’s on the Honor System.)

Oh, and there’s a further catch.  The deadline is this Friday (March 3rd), and we (outside viewers) are prohibited from asked really nicely not to e-mailing the campaigns about said essay request.  It’s a matter of seeing just how many staffers are lurking out there, and reading the blog.

So spread the word in blogland if you wish… Just be silent on the western e-mail front.
