LIKE THE LUCIOS, LAMANTIA A DEMOCRAT IN NAME ONLY
Special to El Rrun-Rrun
With the redistricting shenanigans foisted on South Texas by the GOP of the Texas Legislature, Texas Senate District 27 now has a candidate who lives and works in Hidalgo County, has a $300,000(+) condominium on South Padre Island, and listed her primary campaign address in a beer warehouse in Harlingen.Redistricting by Republicans in Austin has now opened the door to the big money candidates like Morgan Lamantia, an attorney from McAllen, who announced she will be running for the Democrat's seat.
LaMantia is an attorney who works as in-house counsel for her family-owned company L and F Distributors. She joins San Benito attorney Sara Stapleton Barrera and District 37 Representative Alex Dominguez in the race to succeed Lucio.
She, in fact, originally listed her campaign residence as the family's business at 3502 W. Spur 54 in Harlingen, the address of the beer distributors. Then she based her Brownsville headquarter in Eddie Lucio III's office in downtwon Brownsville. Until recently, she was registered to vote in Hidalgo County.
Capitol Inside reported that LaMantia could face some backlash among hardline Democrats as a
The online newspaper reported that according to Texas Ethics Commission records, Morgan LaMantia contributed $5,000 to Buckingham less than a month before the 2020 general election. LaMantia had given Schwertner $1,000 two years before that.
But the number one beneficiary of LaMantia's generosity has been Texas Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller –- a Republican who's close to Donald Trump. LaMantia gave Miller $10,000 a week before the general election in 2018.
LaMantia also contributed to then-Governor Rick Perry when he was a candidate for president in 2015. She has donated to U.S. Senator John Cornyn as well. GOP leaders and lawmakers in Austin approved a new Texas Senate map last month that made SD 27 more competitive on paper with a boost in white residents and corresponding drop in Hispanics.
Lucio was often criticized by fellow Democrats for siding with Republicans on many conservative issues.
Will the new infusion of Hidalgo County-based candidates into the reconfigured district – and their money – tilt the balance toward candidates like Lamantia who have contributed heavily to statewide Republican candidates?

Why I am running for Texas House District 37
By Ruben Cortez, Jr. -February 7, 2022
And how many of us were shivering without power last winter? Instead of punishing the power companies, the legislature
LET THEM RAISE OUR ELECTRICITY RATES FOR THE NEXT TEN YEARS.
We still have FLOODING AND DRAINAGE issues that should have been addressed long ago. We must do better – and that means:
REPAIRING OUR AGING ROADS AND BRIDGES.
And? What is the problem if she thought the republican candidate was better than the democrat? It is what they do for the people not what party they represent. People, don't let them brainwash you. Choose who does better for you as part of the community and not for what they tell you they will do., and never come true. Learn from past mistakes, and choose a PUBLIC SERVANT that will represent YOU. Don't let them manipulate your vote with false promises. Let the Old retire and bring in the new. We need a progressive, down-to-earth candidate to move forward.

I will vote for a candidate that I can relate to, that is a fellow citizen, a person that actually represents the party they selected….

This area is not for the taking Morgan, you are not one of us, you do not know what it is to be from Cameron county, you don’t understand us, and you will never know either! Begone Sucios, Begone You phony!
