Democrats running for Texas offices meet at Mitzis
Sep 10th
The event in the YouTube series of videos (below) took place at Mitzi VanSant’s lovely home in Smithville, Texas. It was a perfect setting in a prefect town for the Democrats for US Senate in Texas, and for many other national, statewide and local offices to gather and meet.
There was an abundant potluck, drinks of all kinds, music, and plenty of shade (important in Texas). Some of the people you’ll see in the video include Chris Duggan (running for Bastrop District Judge), Rick Noriega (running for US Senate), Wayne Smith (running for Bastrop Sheriff), Susan Shelton (Democratic strategist), Mitzi VanSant (the party host), Larry Joe Doherty (running for US Congress), Linda Yanez (running for Judge statewide), Susan Strawn and many others. Best celebrity sitings since Brad and Angie left town.
