Midland City Councilman Will Be Running For U.S. Senate

Another city councilman is announcing his candidacy for the U.S. Senate this time.

According to NewsWest 9, John B. Love III announced he will run for the U.S. Senate and will be seeking the nomination in the Democratic primary on March 3, 2020 running against John Cornyn.

“I’m running for Senate because Washington needs small-town Texas values,” said Love. “I grew up in West Texas where neighbors talked to each other. Sure, we disagreed, but we always found a way to work together. This is what’s missing from politics today. Washington never gets anything done. Partisan politicians like John Cornyn are a big part of the problem.”

Love has been the District 2 councilman since 2012, a leader on the Midland Space Development Corporation, and the Texas Municipal to name a few.
