David Wallace had thumbed his nose at the 22nd District Republican powwow last week and said he’d run no matter who they picked to be official write-in candidate. That “may have worked in Moscow,” he said then.
Well, apparently it works in Sugar Land, too. After pressure from local and national Republicans, Wallace is dropping out, helping Republicans improve their prospects from hopeless (two write-in candidates) to dismal (only one).
Update: More here. Turns out the Republican National Committee had promised to put $3 million in the race — but only if Wallace dropped out.
