(Ed.'s Note: Is one of our readers reading too much into this Facebook post from Ricardo Montana, of Montana's Shoe Repair that indicates that both Cameron County District Attorney and Brownsville Navigation District commission (and former county commissioner) John Woods have defected to the GOP candidate for sheriff?
The DA and Wood proclaim themselves to be Democratic through and through when both ran for election for county positions. As far back as 2012, Saenz has been encouraging people to do the straight ticket democrat (la palanca). Fast forward four years and now he appears to be playing both sides. He not only campaigned along side incumbent Democrat sheriff Omar Lucio, but Lucio was a huge reason he got elected to office. Now it appears that in "liking" Cortez – his former chief of the Public Integrity Unit), he has turned his back on his friends and loyal democrats for a chance to wield complete power of Cameron County.
Why would Democratic elected officials make it public to their constituents that they're supporting a Republican over a Democrat then turn around and ask the democrats for money and votes at election time?
Where is the palanca Saenz would urge voters to pull when he was running?)

Your sources are not credible, and you should know that.
Luis Saenz no tiene los huevos para irse Republican, cabron! Vato tiene las bolas de un gatito
Well I don't know Juan could it maybe be because too much bullshit is happening in the sheriff's dept that shouldn't be? Ever considered that maybe just maybe even deputies and personnel are complaining? Take a long hard look menso. Stop acting naive. You know the answers to all your doubts and concerns.
He doesn't have doubts or concerns, he's just getting paid and has been writing hit pieces on Cortez for months. Yet, none of the hit pieces are about Cortez's qualifications (because they are excellent) or anything other than mocking him or trying to make him look bad by indirectly associating him with other people. It's a game sadly.
Luis is only loyal to himself !! Period whoever believes differently is as SCREWED UP as Luis is !!
If they are supporting Cortez it shows good judgement. FUCK THAT PALANCA VOTE.
All in their right mind will support Cortez for Sheriff. The Reyna brothers continue to hold Omar Lucio up; probably even dress him in the morning and comb his hair before he is interviewed on TV. He should go home and put the Reyna brothers back as beach guards at SPI. Omar Lucio is corrupt as are the Reyna's...part of the culture of corruption in the Cameron County Dumbokratic Party.
Omar Lucio is not a team player and the Reyna brothers keep him from working with other agencies, and other elected officials in Cameron County. They are loose canons and need to be put out to pasture. We need a man like Cortez to be the "leader" in the sheriff's department, not a puppet to two corrupt deputies...Da Reyna's. Omar Lucio is a fixture and the department suffers for it...time to retire Omar.
Hell no send the Reynas somewhere else. Pete Delgadillo doesnt need those goons in PI/SPI!
You are part of the problem Juan. You know what the sheriffs department has become and walk around protecting and lifting those who are not for anything but corruption.
How would Cortez be even better? I see him walking around Corrupt Luis Saenz coat tails
I call bullshit on that comment. They do not go around hanging out or nothing remotely close. Second Cortez worked for the DAs office. If they see each other of course theyre going to be pleasant with one another since Cortez left on good terms. I get along with all my ex employers or supervisors. Theres nothing wrong with that.
Your seem to be a novice when it comes to Cortez. Throughout this entire campaign we have been monitoring very closely and Puppets only do what the Puppeter commands them. Well neither of them is good for our county. It is clear that our local sheriff race is like voting for either Clinton or Trump. Whoever is elected which as far as this blogger is conceded we would rather have a lucio vs Saenz the next four years.
Hopefully Lucio can go out with convincing victory over Cortez so that he may finally start pubically cleaning out Saenz closest.
Really? Like Lucio had been doing? Lucio isn't going to do anything just as he hasn't done anything in the oast. Where have you been? Under a rock? The Reyna Bros are as corrupt as it gets. You are a fool if anything.
