Rick Noriega has NOT declared that he is running against John Cornyn in 2008.

He has now declared his candidacy.

Technically he has declared an exploratory effort, but yes. Amplifiedlight 21:08, 9 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Where was Noreiga born? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.1.151.97 (talk) 21:25, 18 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

To the IP from the sources Noreiga was born and raised in Houston, Texas. Here is a Washington Times and Houston Chronicle profile that lists his birthplace as Houston.[1] [2]--Jersey Devil (talk) 06:22, 6 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

John Cornyn has a lot more information in his article. I live in Texas at the moment and this information is interesting to me as a resident.

Also, Yvonne Adams Schick doesn't even have an article. Not a surprise though, since she didn't win. It's not like she even had a huge precentage of the votes counted. She has a site by her name, but obviously that's not exactly unbiased.

Kay Bailey Hutchison has an extensive article as well. I guess this just means that only people who win the election get a big article. Yep - compared to Barbara Ann Radnofsky and it seems to make sense now. ;)
