Clinton to Ring for Bell
October 8 - 11:36 AM

Former President Bill Clinton will appear next week at a fundraiser for Chris Bell, candidates for Texas senate. Bell, the perennial candidate and occasional officeholder, has recently bumped his fundraising success into the big leagues previously held by his two closest Republican opponents, Austen Furse and Joan Huffman.

Clinton will appear at the home of Arthur Schechter, his former ambassador to Bermuda and an active fundraiser for Democratic Party candidates.

The normally Republican-leaning Senate District 17 is an open seat due to the resignation of Kyle Janek. Because the race is split between four Republican and two Democrat, and because Bell has high name identification ratings due to his previous runs for political office, he is considered to be competitive in this race. Now that he has brought his fundraising up to match his name ID, Bell's chances appear equal to anything a Republican opponent can muster. See an upcoming article for details of the October 6th financial filings.
