Coca Cola Scholorship Awarded to Tina Casares

Researching canidates I found a newspaper article about Tina Casares wherein they go on to show her as a latina with a goal....not only was she awared a scholorship from MANA (Mexican American Women's National Assocation) but also was awarded $1000 Scholorship from Coca Cola.

Now all college applicants and students know it is extremely competive when trying to secure a scholarship, and this is why I stress to others to vote for Tina Casares for Hidalgo County Commisoner Pct. 1 - It is time that we recognize others and vote for change -

The Valley is changing, we should shout out loud NO MORE old school politics - for the sake of change let us allow someone else step in and move us forward into 2008!

Tina Casares

The countdown to early voting has started, with days away from early voting let us reflect on what elections truly should represent. Voting is in place for us (the community) to make a change. It is time for our Community to vote, and the first thing we should consider is our candidates.



I am voting for Tina Casares who is not a stranger to hard work. There is something to be said about a lady who use to be a migrant worker, but overcame those obstacles and obtained a Masters Degree all while raising a family. Tina exemplifies the American dream that Latinas can make a difference.

Vote Early - Let your voice be heard!

Tina (Englantina) Casares awarded Scholarship by MANA, Mexican American Women's National Association

In 1984 Tina Casares was well on her way to achieving her educational goals. The Northwest Chapter of MANA, Mexican American Women's National Association recognized her outstanding achievements in fulfilling her educational goals and proudly awarded her a Scholarship Award.What does MANA do? According to their website MANA empowers Latinas through leadership development, community service, and advocacy. I'm not sure how many other valley political candidates have been recognized by MANA, but I do know that MANA is extremely selective to whom they elect for scholarship awards.Not only is it the duty of each candidate to do their job, it is also important to inform the public of the importance of education. This holds especially true for the Latinos here in America who many are faced with financial hardships. Let's push education for our children, let us continue to allow individuals such as Tina Casares to share their knowledge, skills, and work ethics learned by years of education to help our community.

Early Voting for Hidalgo County

Do not forget to vote - this is a year of great change, as we follow the race for president, lets not forget our own community.

Campaign Allegations Raised Against Hidalgo County Commissioner Sylvia Handy

KGBT 4 news latest article on Sylvia Handy as reported by Victor Castillo
.........Handy adds that she's not surprised by the allegations. She tells Action 4 News this happens to just about every incumbent when running for office.

Hmmm… something to think about... I guess this is why there is a blog for "TEAM MEMBERS" (people like you and me can not post any comments) written by Sylvia Handy Supporters who make it a practice to bash other political figures from the Valley & who casually make crude remarks and boast opinions without regards to opponents - as I always say "Valley Politics sure does get ugly"

Let me guess Sylvia Handy did not tell her supporters what to say either, oh yea... and the candle rituals had nothing to do with her either, and now her employees are making up lies...

C'mon Sylvia Handy step up to the plate and tell it like it is - your a non-college degreed person who demands over $90,000.00 a year to do a job that we the tax payer pay for -
Shoot, If I had your job I would not want to hand it over either I too would say the news stations and newspapers were reporting rumors - after all we know there are few companies out there who would pay over $90,000.00 a year to a non-degreed person.

Here we are in 2008 and yet our public offices remain corrupt - I wonder what the outcome of the FBI investigation was?? -

Anyone who follows politics will say the FBI does not show up at your door just to say hello.
