Eddie Griffin Endorses Nicole Collier

For State Representative 95
Who will represent me in Austin, Texas as StateRepresentative for District 95? WithWendy Davis as my State Senator for Senate District 10, who would best be her pair?
Nobetter choice for Eddie Griffin thanNicole Collier.


I need someone who can battle inthe trenches of the state legislature, as I would represent myself in fightingfor education, jobs, and healthcare.

District95 is not an office for the politically faint-at-hear or a JackDaniel drinking, cigar-smoking drunkard.
District95 is our turf. And whoever takes it on must be touched in the heador in the heart.
NicoleCollier is a woman of sound mind and sound judgment, and adown-and-gritty work ethic that I have witnessed firsthand. She goes after itnon-stop, night and day, like she must have done when she was coming up out ofrock hard poverty, as a teenage African-American single mother.
“As a single mother attendingschool and working to support her daughters,” Nicole Collier political ad says,“Many people told Nicole Collier she’d never make it.”
And yet she had the tenacity to go out and do it. Shegraduated from high school, went on to college, got her degree in law, and nowowns her own law firm. Today, she is highly esteemed by her peers in the TrialLawyers Association.
Her worn out pink sneakersproclaims: “A leader who’s walked thewalk”. Indeed, she is all that and then some.
Can she take a punch, I askedmyself? A tough candidate must be able to roll with the punches, and take somehard knocks in the political arena.
To test the mettle in the mortalof the candidacy, I bluntly and unabashedly asked her, “Can you take a punch?”
Not a nice question to ask a ladyat our first meeting. But here Nicole Collier had assumed the bold audacity to take on the district whereEddie Griffin lives. And I am a man accustomed to trading punches in thepolitical arena.
No. Nicole Collier must be able to take apunch if she is to survive Round One,and make it into the latter rounds.
In response to my question, thispetite, pint-size young grandmother, not yet forty, looked Eddie Griffinstraight in the eyes, balled up her fist, took aim at my choppers, and answeredconfidently: “Not only can I take a punch. I hit back.”
Yep! This is one tough Texasgrandma- big voice, big heart, and fierce fighting spirit. And, I believe shecan hold her ground and fend herself against those big political bullies inAustin that will surely come her way in the legislature.

Therefore, Eddie G. Griffin (BASG)gladly and proudly endorses Nicole Collier for State Representative 95.
The Star-TelegramEditorial Board recommends NicoleCollier in the Democratic Primary for Texas House District 95.
