Largest police group in Texas endorses Greg Abbott over former Dallas County Sheriff Lupe Valdez

[TexasTowelie]

AUSTIN — The state's largest law enforcement organization has endorsed Gov. Greg Abbott over his Democratic opponent, former Dallas County Sheriff Lupe Valdez.

The Combined Law Enforcement Associations of Texas, or CLEAT, made the announcement with Abbott on Friday morning.

"The governor and I aren't always going to agree," added Harrison, a sergeant with the Austin Police Department. "But here's what this man said: that he will at least listen to the concerns of my members."

Valdez served as Dallas County sheriff from 2005 until late last year, when she stepped down to run for governor. When she won her primary in March, she became the first Latina and first openly gay person to win a major party's nomination for the state's top job.
