Facebook Fans
Randi Shade is running for Austin City Council Place 3 against incumbent Jennifer Kim, and it looks like she already has a few fans on social-networking site, Facebook. The Facebook group, "Randi Shade for Austin City Council!" counts almost fifty members after only a few days in existence.
Now, to be fair, the group "1,000,000 Strong for Stephen Colbert" has about 1.5 million members. And the group "Rick Noriega" has 620. But you gotta start somewhere.
Note: I don't think you can view the group page unless you have a facebook membership. But I absolutely recommend joining. All the cool kids are doing it.
UPDATE 3:36pm: Texas Railroad Commissioner Michael Williams has a group with about 70 fans after being up about one week. You rock on with that Facebook, Commish.
