Here are some facts -

Harvey Hilderbran (R) Texas - Initiated proposals requiring permits for pythons, outlawed road collecting in Texas, used dirty politics to get it passed.

Rick Perry (R) Texas - Signed both of those into law and has appointed a Land Commissioner who seems to be intent on selling Texas parkland, including areas in the Big Bend and Black Gap to private interests.

Ralph Poppell (R) Florida - Leading the charge against the Python in Florida, he is intent on seeing many pets banned as "invasive" species at the federal level.

You can consider this kingsnake.com's official endorsement of the Democratic party. Even though most, if not all, these candidates
are not running, I cannot in good conscience vote for a party so seemingly intent on destroying our hobby and our industry.
