The Houston Chronicle endorses Max Martin for U.S. Congress in the Texas 36th District.

The editorial continued to say:

"And the lone Democrat? No thanks to his no-show state party, Max Martin is a credible, if long-shot, candidate. Martin, a retired pilot who now owns an education software business in Clear Lake, is our endorsement choice over the stealth ca
ndidate Stockman to represent this economically diverse district. Martin is an old-school Texas Democrat, whose moderate, pro-business views should have appeal to many Republicans in the district, which includes refineries, Gulf fisheries, ranches and timbering operations. Constituents include blue-collar workers, small business owners and a growing number of retirees from out of state."

Good luck. Texas needs more Democrats and it will happen. Hope you are part of that.
