Mark Davis, host of "The Mark Davis Show" on 660 AM The Answer, addressed the Park Cities Republican Women. He emphasized the importance of straight ticket voting in November and reiterated how Democrats win Dallas County by voting straight ticket. He believes negative campaigns are effective when candidates in the primaries share many of the same political beliefs. Looking forward to the Attorney General run-off in May, he knows that Texas will be well represented by whoever wins the Republican primary. Mark Davis made a point to thank State Senator John Carona for his servant's heart and congratulate Don Huffines. It was a great privilege to have Mark Davis at PCRW!
