Sounds like Crawford will continue to have a Democratic congressman.
Looks like Congressman Chet Edwards just locked this one up! The National Republican Campaign Committee pulled $1.5 million worth of advertising from the race in TX-17 between Congressman Edwards and Republican challenger Van Taylor. From a press release from the Edwards campaign:
According to five television stations in the DFW market, the NRCC on Monday canceled its planned television ad buy on behalf of Taylor. The cancelled Taylor buy was valued at over $1.5 million and was scheduled to run in the last two weeks of the campaign.
This will prove to be a tremendous boom for Edwards, who'd already received endorsements from the papers and maintained an 10:1 fundraising advantage over Taylor.http://www.burntorangereport.com/showDiary.do?diaryId=2164
