Debates Set as Bush Richards Eye Dallas Forum
Texas political tension rises as GOP nominee George W. Bush will debate incumbent Governor Ann Richards in Dallas on Oct. 21. The event pairs Richards and Bush with a separate Hutchison Fisher debate in the first and second hours of the forum titled The Texas Debates: The People’s Agenda.

In other news, a federal panel orders redrawing of three districts, a San Antonio man faces federal charges over illegal political contributions, auto insurance rate hikes are proposed, and former base closure chair Jim Courter declines a $75,000 offer to assist San Antonio installations.
