Bill Hammond Can't Spell His Candidate's Name

The Texas Association of Business released their endorsements today. Of course they chose write-in hopeful Shelley Sekula-Gibbs against Nick Lampson in CD-22. The funny part? They misspelled her name on the endorsement list. Hope nobody in CD-22 listens to Bill Hammond, or else they'll be misspelling her name when they write it in on the ballot. Here's hoping TAB can figure out the correct spelling before they send her a check. You can see the full release here (WordDoc).

You must be really bored or just very anal retentive.

Anyhow....who cares.

It's August, there's nothing going on, of course I'm bored. My point still stands that they are expecting people to write in her name and one of her big time endorsers can't even spell her name. Anywho, thanks for commenting Bill.

Poor Van Taylor. He can't even get the TAB endorsement. What a loser.
