Michele Leal
Two more candidates to go in HD148. I will not get to everyone, but I hope this series has helped you decide which of the candidates you want to support. Michele Leal is another candidate to succeed Rep. Jessica Farrar who has worked as a staffer to Rep. Farrar in the past; she also worked in the Senate Research Center. Leal is a past board member and past co-chair of the Latino Texas PAC, has served as President of the Latin Women’s Initiative, and was the Development Director for El Centro de Corazón, a community health center serving uninsured and underinsured patients. She is also the daughter of Al Leal, former criminal court judge in Harris County. Here’s the interview:
The Erik Manning spreadsheet now has all of the Democrats who are running for HD148 listed. I have a list of all 15 candidates here.
I’ve worked with Michele on grant writing and I have to say, this young lady is golden. I have never seen someone work as diligently or hard as she does and i’m assuming that will continue should she get elected. Good luck to her!
She’s pro-charter school and sustains a charter school scholarship. Not my cup of tea. She’s been on the payroll of a lot of her friends’ and family’s organizations, but I wouldn’t say she has “work” experience. She’s just good at shucking and jiving people.
