ABoR ENDORSES BILL WELCH IN DISTRICT 47 STATE REP RACE

February 15, 2006 - The Austin Board of REALTORS® Candidate Recommendation Committee (CRC) met last month to consider endorsing a candidate for State Representative District 47. After interviewing the six candidates in the race, the committee determined Mr. Bill Welch to be the most knowledgeable about and responsive to REALTOR® concerns and interests. Mr. Welch will receive $1,000 for his campaign.

The CRC, which consisted of seven REALTOR® and associate members, considered responses to both the candidate questionnaire and the personal interview in making their selection. The committee forwarded their recommendation to the President and CEO, as well as to the Texas Association of REALTORS®.

The CRC and ABoR Board of Directors encourage all REALTORS® in the community to vote on Tuesday March 7, 2006.

The Austin Board of REALTORS® is a non-profit, voluntary organization representing more than 6,500 licensed REALTORS® in Central Texas. For further information, click here.
