Are you a fan of South Plains politics? Here are your talking points for this week.
Texas A&M University said last week they would allow qualifying students to carry guns in dorms. Texas Tech University will allow it in some dorms. Schools like Wayland Baptist University have options such as forgetting the whole thing. However, this private school is taking a second look at campus carry.
Who are you taking a second look at when it comes to Lubbock’s next mayor? All four candidates have public experience. We’ll take a look at who’s doing a better job in the media and one the street before the election.
Also this week, bring out the big guns in the District 19 race. Politicians love to finish strong in the final weeks of the campaign and a good endorsement can energize their committed voters. Both Jodey Arrington and Glen Robertson both face the dilemma of how to do that in the upcoming congressional run-off election. Arrington fired the first shot with a former presidential candidate and Texas governor last week.
Talking Points with Bryan Mudd airs each Sunday morning at 11:30 a.m. and Sunday evenings at 11:05 p.m.
