In addition to being a successful business owner, I am a strong conservative and Christian who shares the pro-life, pro-2nd Amendment values of South Texas. I am proud to have the endorsement of Texas Alliance for Life and the NRA’s highest ‘AQ’ rating. I will be a strong advocate for those values in the Texas Senate.

What qualities and experiences set you apart from your opponents?
The most important qualification is that I am a strong conservative who stands up for our pro-family values. I am proud to have the support of local and statewide law enforcement and to be endorsed by Texas Alliance for Life. I also have the NRA’s top ‘AQ’ candidate rating because I believe in upholding every word of the 2nd Amendment.

And as usual there was the polarity between uncompromisingly anti-abortion Texas Right to Life, which backed Harrison, and the more centrist and speaker-friendly Texas Alliance for Life, which again endorsed Wray. The average voter may not understand the nuances between the major pro-life advocacy groups, but it does show the ideological/strategic differences that may exist between the top candidates.

Chris Paddie serves as chairman of the highly influential State Affairs Committee.

In a sign of the desire by Wray’s side to distinguish him as the frontrunner, the pro-Wray Texas Alliance for Life has sent out a mailer comparing Wray to a scrum of faceless competitors. The mailer suggests his opponents jumped in the race “at the last minute” to create confusion and cause a runoff that would not fill the seat until after the special session, comparing the alleged obstruction to that of the quorum-breaking House Democrats. The mailer has especially miffed supporters of Harrison, who did not enter the race at the 11th hour but a few days before the filing deadline.

Joe Pojman, founder of the Texas Alliance for Life, has an agenda that he hopes will get traction in the new Congress:
Number one is a complete ban on abortion, The Human Life Protection Act. It would protect unborn babies beginning at fertilization, and it would go into effect when and to the extent that the Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade.
