A Note from My Father
Here’s an email that that just came in from my father. He’s been a volunteer precinct captain for the Obama campaign in Texas.

Good morning, family!
Despite what you may have heard, Obama is now leading Hillary in Texas by 99 delegates to 94. We spent all day Sat. at our district convention, where we picked state delegates to elect our national delegates, and we got 80% of them. Around the state, Obama won 60% of all the state delegates, which will give him a majority on the Texas delegation.
Hillary’s lawyers are trying to claw back what she didn’t win, but it won’t happen. For example, in our (overwhelmingly white and Hispanic) precinct, they challenged enough of our voters to take away one of our convention delegates. Susan had to spend all day Friday responding. Eventually, our district credentials committee simply ignored the challenge.
Maybe it helped that the election judge was one of our guys. You’ve never seen some many pissed off lady lawyers in shoulder pads.
The only thing left now is the superdelegates, affectionately esteemed here as scum-sucking party hacks elected by nobody. Hillary is on them like a tick. We’re [going to] find out who they are and make their lives miserable if they don’t vote with their districts.
This has taken a lot of time, but we feel like it was our turn. Wish we didn’t have to make a living..
Rob
