With Election Day approaching, candidates up and down the ballot are making their final push to reach voters. CBS News Texas has been following the polls and covering political events all year long in a quest to find the Texas State of Mind .
But ultimately, it’s the people who matter and who will decide what happens. In an effort to get a better understanding of what voters across the Lone Star State will be thinking about as they cast their ballots, reporter Jason Allen and a CBS News Texas crew are spending the weeks leading up to the election traveling across the state, speaking to people from the Chihuahuan Desert to the Pineywoods.
Last week, Jason traveled to the Rio Grande Valley. This week, we slow down and head to a couple of wineries in Central Texas’ Hill Country.
HILL COUNTRY – When Chris Brundrett co-founded William Chris Vineyards in 2008, he just wanted to grow good grapes. He now employs 136 people.
