Included in the poll are three names that have been mentioned so far, as well as the option for other.
My vote was cast for "whoever Paul endorses" but I'd like to see his son Robert make the attempt.
UPDATE:

Apparently a man named Larry Taylor (R), who is a State Rep for the Friendswood area, is being pushed by "conservative leaders across Texas" to run for the seat... I don't know who these "conservative leaders" are, but it seems as if that's code for ESTABLISHMENT... We should work hard on figuring out who this guy is and what he's about.
Also, in the same article, Debra Medina has confirmed that redistricting has put her out of Ron's district. :(
Given the district's new boundaries, Medina said it was doubtful that she would run to replace him, even though it's something she would otherwise have considered.
