Selvera endorses Garza
Thursday, March 12, 2020 by Elizabeth Pagano
With the Travis County Attorney race headed to a runoff, former candidate Dominic Selvera has thrown his support behind Mayor Pro Tem Delia Garza. Selvera won 7.53 percent of the vote on March 3. Garza, who won 38.91 percent, will face off against Laurie Eiserloh, who won 42.2 percent of the vote and the endorsement of the fourth person in the race, Mike Denton. Selvera explained his support in a Twitter thread:
1/7 When we began our campaign for Travis County Attorney in early 2019, our goal was to bring true criminal justice reform to our community by ending the cash bail system, ending the war on drugs, and decriminalizing homelessness. pic.twitter.com/QEkqmUZrBu
