Harris County DA Race: Anderson Plays Gay Card Against Challenger Ogg
Trailing in the polls, Republican Harris County District Attorney Devon Anderson has apparently resorted to attacking Democratic Challenger Kim Oggs sexual orientation.
During an interview with The American Chronicles podcast that was published Tuesday, Anderson said Ogg would be a liberal, pro-choice, lesbian district attorney.
