NYT: "A Texan's Race Could Lead to the F.C.C."

The former chairwoman of the Texas Public Utility Commission, who is currently running for Congress, is attracting considerable support from the nation's largest telephone and energy companies, according to The New York Times. Becky Armendariz Klein is running as Republican in a heavily Democratic district in Texas against a five-term incumbent. Speculators believe she is likely to lose the race, but, in the event of a second Bush administration, she is seen as a likely candidate for the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). http://www.nytimes.com
