Lon Burnam Files Lawsuit in Tarrant County Against Ramon Romero

After longtime liberal lion Lon Burnam's loss this past March, democratic insiders within the Texas legislature mourned one of the more bitter loses they've seen since the 2010 tea party tidal wave election year.

Well, true to form as within the House chamber, citizen Burnam isn't go down without his chance on the back microphone.

In a lawsuit filed today in Tarrant County against his democratic primary opponent who won the election by 110 votes, Burnam claims that there are reports of an illegal vote by mail operation of some kind, that allegedly might have been orchestrated by his opponent.

This lawsuit seeks to obtain any information from the County Clerk's office, and from those involved in any of the alleged practices, to get down to the bottom of what, if any, wrongdoing occurred.

will Lon apologize or continue on this path of vendetta he started by calling Ramon a "fake" democrat, but not calling out David Alameel as a fake democrat for his 1.6 MILLION in donations to republicans? Hypocrisy seems to be one of Lon's many skills and talents.

OH, wait….the Powers That Be in Tarrant County (and that includes Lon) get to change the rules and apply them as they see fit and no one is supposed to say anything or fight back or use the same rules in the same way they do,,,,, and if we do, we get put on the shit list.

I hope this is just more sour grapes on Lon's side,,,we need younger people and new people in office and I'm glad there are a few out there trying.
