For my SD15 homies, Kuffner has done interviews with all 6 candidates. I'm gonna link the one with Cardenas here, because it was the last one in the series and has links to the others. https://www.offthekuff.com/wp/?p=112964
I listened to them all over the past couple days. I think we've got a lot of good choices here and it seems certain this will go to a runoff. Johnson, Litton, and Cook have raised the most money, with Soora a step behind them, and Cardenas and Bonton way behind.
The fundamental question of these interviews boils down to "how do you plan to get anything done in Dan Patrick's Senate?". I liked Johnson's confrontational approach. Cook leaned in to her energy and experience getting out in the streets and organizing. Litton was thoughtful talking about the issues but came across to me as a little defeatist. He kept saying variations on "unfortunately none of this is gonna happen, but it's worth a shot".
I also got off in the weeds and looked at a couple campaign finance reports and it was more interesting than I thought. For instance, Litton's wife is a doctor and bigwig at MD Anderson. Almost all his donations were in the $100+ range, with a bunch of $500 and even $1000 individual donations. I'm guessing his base of support is well-heeled types in places like West U and Bellaire. On the other hand, Cook's donations were a ton of $20, $25, etc. That matches her image as a young, progressive, community organizer-type.
