The Texas Tribune omitted key information in an article describing Republican Texas Supreme Court justices facing a primary challenger.
The story, intended to highlight numerous Texas Congressional and state-wide political officeholders facing challengers in either their Democratic or Republican Party primary contests, reported two justices of the Texas Supreme Court are facing primary challengers.
“Two members of the all-Republican Texas Supreme Court are facing primary challenges. Houston appeals court Judge Michael Massengale is challenging Justice Debra Lehrmann. And in a race that is likely to cause some voter confusion, former state Rep. Rick Green is challenging Justice Paul Green.
The Texas Tribune piece failed to mention that three justices of the Texas Supreme Court are facing a challenger in the Republican primary.
From the Texas Secretary of State website:
Texas primary voters deserve to have the facts presented to them by the media and not solely the bits & pieces the media want you to know.
