Texas Lieutenant Governor candidate Dan Patrick visited a united audience of conservatives on Tuesday evening, Aug. 26, to share his desire to “crush” the opposition in the coming election.
Speaking at the Kingsland Community Center, Sen. Patrick addressed the unprecedented gathering of five area conservative groups, including members from Star Republican Women, Llano Tea Party, Llano County Republican Party, Llano County Republican Club and Highland Lakes Republican Women.
In addition, Senator Troy Fraser (who introduced Patrick,) Burnet County Judge Elect James Oakley, Llano County Justice of the Peace-Elect (Precinct 1) Bebe Piatt and representatives of Gillespie County were also in attendance.
“This is the first time in our county history we’ve jointly hosted something together,” said Bill Hussey, founder and president-elect of the Llano Tea Party. “The intent is to unite for victory.”
