Now we'll see if it's possible for the factions in the district to put ego's asid and get behind a single candidate. Mayor Wallace of Sugar Land appears to be the only holdout right now . . .

Forgive me for being callous, but how are the legions of people supposed to remember Sikula-Gibbs? Does not exactly roll off the toungue or memory. I am sure if she were on the ballot she would win easily, but if thousands of voters are supposed to remember her name...forget it.

Gee, it would've been nice for her to drop the affectation of the hypenated name for someone expecting people to write it in correctly on a ballot...a typical blunder for the GOP.

Sekula-Gibbs is an unfortunately long name for a write-in candidate.
What will happen with the thousands of ballots, where her name is misspelled?

Looks like the GOP again is going to snatch defeat from the jaws of a Republican victory.

I've said it before and I'll say it again . . . she needs to pick a last name and lose that stupid hyphen.

I'd be inclined to vote against a hyphenator on principle alone.
