If we were to describe the defenseive ad that Democratic party candidate for the 357th District Court Juan Magallanes placed in the newspaper Sunday in one word, that word would be "lame."
Although it's true that the 13th Court of Appeals did side with Abel Limas in the case where a jury had issued a verdict against Magallanes and his client over a real-estate contract, the fact of the matter was that at the time the court of appeals justices had no way of knowing that Limas had borrowed $30,000 from Juan while he had a case pending in his court.
In response, Oscar X. Garcia, Magallanes' opponent in the general election going on now, issued this sttaement:
TRUTH No.1 Magallanes has NEVER DENIED giving the $30,000 to the Corrupt Judge Abel Limas because IT IS TRUE!!!
TRUTH No.2 Magallanes has NEVER DENIED giving Limas the $30,000 while Magallanes had a case pending with Limas because IT IS TRUE!!!
TRUTH No.3 Magallanes wants to distract you from the $30K loan to the CORRUPT LIMAS!
MAGALLANES STILL DOESN’T GET IT.
IT’S NOT OKAY TO SECRETLY LOAN A CORRUPT JUDGE $30,000 UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!!!
A VOTE FOR JUDGE OSCAR X. GARCIA IS A VOTE FOR KEEPING CORRUPTION LIKE THIS OUT OF THE COURTROOM!!!
Magallanes probably rues the day that he agreed to loan Limas the cash, as do other attorneys with close ties to Abel, who is now doing time in a federal camp in Pensacola, Fla. Garcia is hoping that county voters had enough judicial corruption buttressed by local attorneys who turned away or participated in the general bloodletting and carried away cash by the handful from local courts.
Early voting began today. The decision is now in the hnads of the voters.

that is a crock of crap. Magallanes was not limas baby seater. He was an attorney and the only one liable for his actions is limas him self. As friends you can not baby seat what others do.
magallanes got this.
go ahead and wish him wrong the more you wish the more it falls upon you.
the law of what you wish for others is what you receive for you
Oscar may be republican #3 to win in CC
I was in Harlingen today on first day of early vote. I find it unbelievable the number of people that said they were democrats, but voting republican.
Magallenes got himself in this mess. Its, now catching up with him, negatively.
