Funding for Piedrahita’s

“The majority, about 70 per

Sanchez said, referring to the Democratic assault
on Houston during the 2(XX) presidential race.
Sanchez, vying to become Houston’s first
Hispanic mayor, lost to the city’s first black mayor.
The general election, in which Sanchez and
Brown beat white non-Hispanic city council
member Chris Bell, stayed away from race and
ethnicity. They became issues in the runoff, with
one pro-Brown ad claiming Sanchez was an “imi
tation Caucasian” for claiming “white” as his race
on his driver’s license.
However, in Texas “Hispanic” is not a race. All
Hispanics must choose white, black, Asian,
American IndiXn or other.
Brown said the ad, which ran on at least one
black-oriented radio station, was not his.
