If that pushed through, Rep. Raul Gonzalez, Jr. and graduating Mayor Jerry Treñas would be running in tandem for two congressional seats without a fight.

DECEMBER once ushered a different weather: the wet season was over and the dry set in. December was cold and dry up to January; February was warm and windy.
