Lampson v Olson

Shelley Sekula Gibbs, she of the famous immediate congressional staff mutiny, was defeated in the runoff for the Republican nomination in the 22nd District. CQPolitics posits, and not with any lack of merit, that the Republican establishment was eager to line up behind Pete Olson, a former aide to both Senators John Cornyn and Phil Gramm. Olson will face incumbent Democrat Nick Lampson in November.
