Annie's List Endorses Matula


Sherrie Matula is the Democratic candidate running for the Texas House in District #129. She is trying to unseat incumbent Republican John Davis, and her chances are looking very good. I wrote recently about how she has raised slightly more money than her opponent, and a dedicated group of volunteers have knocked on thousands of doors in the district. Now she has received a well-deserved boost to her campaign.

Campaign Manager Martha Griffin has announced that Ms. Matula has now been endorsed by Annie's List. Annie's List is an organization that helps progressive women candidates in Texas to get elected. It is quite an honor to be on their list of endorsed candidates.

Aside from the honor, it could also represent a nice financial boost to Matula's campaign. The organization has promised to match any donations to the Matula campaign for the next 10 days (up to $10,000). That means any contribution, whether large or small, will instantly be doubled.

If you have a few bucks to give to help elect a good progressive candidate in district #129, this next week would be a great time to do it. All campaigns need money, and Matula's is not different. Throw a few dollars her way and make Annie's List dip into their pocketbook. It would be great to make them cough up the full $10,000.

Help elect a great representative. Send a donation to the Sherrie Matula Campaign, P.O. Box 591810, Houston, Texas, 77259.
