Kinky Turns in 169,574 Signatures
AUSTIN, Texas -- May 11, 2006 -- Independent gubernatorial candidate Kinky Friedman today declared he has nearly four times the number of signatures required to get him on the November ballot.
"Today, the people of Texas are sending a message to the politicians who have run our beloved state into the ground. The people have spoken loud and clear. It's time to take our state back from the Republicans and Democrats who've caused this train wreck. We're going to make Texas great again. We cannot be stopped," Friedman said.
Another famous Texan has hinted at a political future and once told "Time" magazine that he hadn't ruled out the possibility of running for governor of Texas. Wouldn't that make a great race, Lance vs. Kinky!
