Candidate Questionnaires

Submitted by Bill Crosier on February 26, 2006 - 9:21pm. ::

Members of the Progressive Action Alliance, the Progressive Populist Caucus of the Texas Democratic Party, and Democracy for Houston developed questionnaires based on some of issues that are of great interest to us. We sent them to candidates in the Houston/southeast Texas area who are in contested races in the 2006 Democratic primary. We plan to send the questionnaires to other candidates after the primary.

One questionnaire, based on national issues, was developed for Congressional candidates. Another questionnaire was developed for state candidates. Some of the same questions (such as verifiable voting) appear on both.

Links to the questionnaires appear below. We'll add links to each candidate's responses as we get them. This will allow you to compare their responses on these critical issues. No editing of the responses will be done -- we'll upload responses just as the candidates provide them to us.
