For too long our voice has been but a whisper because of the corrupt politico machine has had a stranglehold on the low voter turnout that plagues our community. Career politicians have become complacent, comfortable and inefficient. No challenge to dynastic governance creates arrogance and leaves individuals with a tinge of entitlement.
When visiting Austin during the now defunct Brownsville Day at the Capital as a concerned citizen I shared with our representatives the concerns of our people. I was set back at their response, “your people don’t vote, so they don’t matter.” This was one of the reasons I decided to run for Mayor of the City of Brownsville. I wanted the opportunity to show my people and the politicos a different way, a better way.
I am currently serving my community on the Brownsville ISD Board of Trustees. We won our seat with the greatest number of votes and the highest percentage in the race. In my time on the Board I have continued to fight the corrupt political machine that consumes our children’s inheritance. I have remained faithful to the promises I made while running and true to the oath I took upon taking our seat. A better way, a brighter day.
Today I proudly announce that I am your candidate for Texas State Representative District 38. We will bring true transparent representation to Austin and continue to demand better from all local elected officials. No more working for the few. Representation that focuses on economic development. Representation that will work on campaign finance reform. Representation that will work within ones means and not in the pocket of special interest groups from all over the country.
Together my friends, we can bring about the change our community deserves. I humbly ask for your continued support.
Par for Brownsville. Gathering from its worst residents, always seeking the lowest ground. Erasmo Castro? Why not Tad Hasse? Why not Pat Ahumada. Day for losers, right?
ReplyDeleteTad is Sad.
DeleteTad is Mad.
DeleteTad who?
DeleteThis guy is a joke got elected to serve on the BISD board and got banned from attending any BISD function. Is this the type of elected official we want in office? Let’s not forget his DWI charge that is pending. He is a fool and acts like one.
ReplyDeleteHe’s got my family’s vote.
ReplyDeleteInnocent until proven guilty. Way to go, Big E!
ReplyDeleteSome Republicans are pissed off Erasmo filed. They should be chugging champagne celebrating an elected official with his own political base running as Republican.
ReplyDeleteThey’re mad because they don’t know how to win. They’re losers from Loserville.
DeleteTheir chairman doesn’t give a shit just like the Democrats didn’t give a shit when he filed as one. She thinks the same that his candidacy brings more profile to the ballot. She’s running unopposed with endorsements from everybody who voted to remove her so she does something right
DeleteNo one wanted run against her because no one of significance gives a shit about being involved with party politics.
DeleteYou got my vote no matter what other people think or say about you ERASMO . Your just human like everyone else you have done alot for our children GOD BLESS YOU
ReplyDeleteI know you can make a difference one step at a time. You had made a difference already in many ways. We support you 100%. You are our voice, not because we are low or midddle class, but because you know what is needed to strive.
ReplyDeleteErasmo filed Thursday. Republicans knew it. 5 days later. Did they find any man to run against Erasmo?
ReplyDeleteMorgs was too busy finding somebody to run against their own loser congressional candidate dr. Ray Gonzalez to find somebody. She’s out for blood
DeleteRepublicans are losers. Erasmo has the best chance to win, but the Republicans will let their loser show and put all their eggs in “Don Quixote” Chambers. Losers.
ReplyDeleteBobby Whitman says Morgan Graham couldn’t confirm last night that Erasmo filed.
ReplyDeleteHe filed Thursday. Why are the Republicans so secretive?
Erasmo fucking filed Thursday? Why the fuck were they so hush hush?
DeleteThey’ve never announced filings until after the deadline so why do you care now?
DeleteHe asked if she could confirm he announced That he was running Republican not whether he filed
DeleteOnly two people know exactly what he asked. I believe Bobby, Ms Republican.
DeleteYou posted a photo of Erasmo in Monterrey, Mexico, where the moron belongs. LOL
ReplyDeleteDid you hear Chairman Graham gave Maggie Ozuna the Republican Volunteer Award in Austin this weekend? Maggie supports Alex Dominguez. A Democrat!!!! Real Republicans like Anna Puente should get the award. Not Maggie.
ReplyDeleteShe should have chosen that thief Josh Peltier since he volunteered to fundraise for himself and did such a great job. Would fit in perfectly with the Dumbocrats.
DeleteThe pickings of Republican of the Year must be thin. I too would have select someone who is not a known sympathizer of a Democrat state representative.
ReplyDeleteExcept she didn’t she chose the switch hitting gay guy for the award
DeleteGreat!! Good move!!
DeleteI agree with Anonymous Dec 15 @12:15 am that the Ozuna woman did not deserve ”the Republican Volunteer Award” Period!!! I have been a member of this Republican Party for to long , and have seen Anna working four times harder than that Maggie lady ever would.
ReplyDeleteTime to vote on a vice Chair !!
I propose Anna Tejeda Aguilar. Who Seconds?
Look ma it’s a bitch who can’t spell!
DeleteIt's safe to say Maggie Ozuna was not chosen for any award and Wolf Chapa was. Anna may be a great advocate and humanitarian but she was not selected for whatever reason. Wolf Chapa deserved and received it. That is the end of that.
