Youll see by clicking this link that The Dallas Morning News voters guide is now posted on line for your inspection. More than nine out of every 10 candidates we sent questionnaires to filled them out and posted answers for public view.
The biggest disappointment in the no-shows: Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst. Hes the highest-ranking elected official I can remember EVER ignoring an invitation to fill out this newspapers campaign questionnaire. Whats his deal?
All three of Dewhursts opponents in the GOP lieutenant governors primary race answered the roughly 14 policy questions we sent them.
Land Commissioner Jerry Patterson answered them.
Ag Commissioner Todd Staples answered them.
State Sen. Dan Patrick answered them.
If you look under Dewhursts name on the Q&A form, youll see this: The Dallas Morning News did not receive response from the candidate prior to the deadline. Translation: Candidate ignored repeated reminders that the window was closing, and candidate didnt give a whit. Candidates answers will not appear here.
