The news of Texas covered today includes:
Our Lone Star story of the day: The Austin insider crowd has pulled out all stops to ensure it, the power crowd, chooses Texas’ next Comptroller of Public Accounts instead of voters. But don’t worry, these extreme and legally questionable measures can still be overridden by voters in the Primary Election. It may all be legal, may, but it stinks and it worries me that Hancock doesn’t smell that bit.
- Abbott Backs Kelly Hancock as He Steps Into Comptroller Office
- Veteran state Sen. Kelly Hancock to lead comptroller’s office after Glenn Hegar departs for A&M
- The Texan interview: Kelly Hancock on His Bid for Texas Comptroller
When you cut corners for personal gain (to obtain an office,) it’s a reliable sign that you’ll cut corners in that office to obtain personal gain or benefit friends.
Our Lone Star story of the day is sponsored by Allied Compliance Services providing the best service in DOT, business and personal drug and alcohol testing since 1995.
More Texas employment records set.
