Davis' "A Texas Story" Video Her First Step In Statewide Campaign

Wendy Davis for Governor

Wendy Davis’ campaign brought in over $500,000 in contributions in less than 24 hours after her announcement that she would run for governor and the Democrat from Fort Worth has now launched her first campaign video.

"A Texas Story" starts with a biography of Davis’ life and features her daughter Amber, who details her mother’s humble beginnings.

The video then shifts focus on the lives impacted by some of Davis’ legislation and standoffs in the Texas Senate, showing the Democratic candidate as being responsible for more than just a 13-hour filibuster of this summer’s controversial abortion bill.

Editor's Note: This interesting video production tidbit showed up on Twitter about a cowboy/farmer/rancher used in the Davis video [27 second mark].

Ryan started his radio career in 2002 working for Austin’s News Radio KLBJ-AM as a show producer for the station's organic gardening shows. This slowly evolved into a role as the morning show producer and later as the group’s executive producer.
