Justice of the Peace Pct.1
Benito (Bo) Ochoa IV
As name appears on 2018 Democratic Party Primary Ballot
That day – coming as it did on Thursday – the coldest day of the year when a blue northern plowed through South Texas, was not a day when many ventured out to politick. In fact, some invitees turned back when they started out toward Port Isabel.
But what many didn't know was that when things were said and done, the name Benito (Bo) Ochoa IV would appear on the Democratic Party primary ballot, and not JP PCT #1 Bennie Ochoa III.
In other words, Ochoa, a descendant of Port Isabel's historical pirate community, had pulled a bait and switch on the voters and installed his son for four years since he has no Democratic opponent and there is no Republican contender in the November 2018 general election.
"We were talking about that earlier," said a political activist in Brownsville. "Everyone thought it was Benny running for reelection and nobody wanted to run against him. Instead it was his son Bo."
Ochoa's move was – if not tricky – a well calculated move that will insure that his son does not spend a penny on a campaign for the primary or for the general election. In short, it's four free years as justice of the peace which he can use to learn the ropes from the aster, his father.
"No one can say it was illegal," said the activist. "It just shows that people out at the Port still have that trace of the pirates who once lived there. You've got to get up pretty early in the morning to outsmart these guys."

Days before the end of the filing period, JP. #1 Bennie Ochoa III was calling friends throughout the Cameron County to invite them to his reelection announcement in Port Isabel.

Typical Mexican move. Shameful. Why not be upfront? Ochoas are dirt now!!!
Like all the whites moron.
Llllaaaaaaarrrrrrgggggooooo. (Largo)
Lol 11:31 Mexican dirt or not, he stuffed it all up your ass.
The only way his son would be elected without an opponent it just shows that his son is not fit to be a JP and soon he will be as corrupt as his father way to go !
Check Texas Commission on Judicial Review and look at complaints against him.
El pirata or el trampa? doe snot surprise me one it from benny Ochoa, he has being doing these shenanigans for many year just recently all those uncovered checks from last decade. Well he learned from the best trampas when he hunged around for decades with folks like joe rivera and gilberto hinojosa the scum of the Cameron County Democratic party. Bola de Ratas y pos sorry Port Isabel folks Benny Ochoa did indeed pull a fast one on you all, keep believing in this type of scum, lol. .
The fundraiser invitation said "re-election fundraiser for Benny Ochoa III" with Bo as the Master of Ceremonies. Wonder what Benny did with the $$ raised?
