Claudia Ordaz Perez is moving districts to avoid taking on a fellow female, Lina Ortega.
But there is a rumor out there being spread that Lina is NOT retiring after all.
And it ain't just one or two people saying it from the same political circle.
And, it gets better.
Apparently, Lina is gonna hold off any announcements until the very last day, at which point shortly thereafter, another Ortega - Steve - announces he's running for her seat.
If this rumor is true, my God, Claudia, got royally phucked.
We have seen this before like when Shapleigh retired...he had everyone lined up for Jose Rodriguez.
But it is something of dick move for constituents of that district.
They are being denied a choice in representation because of something that amounts to nepotism.
The more things change in El Paso....
