Politics in the Barnett Shale

April 27, 2011 By TXsharon

Politics is intense in the Barnett Shale.

The ABCAlliance blog deciphered the BS (not short for Barnett Shale) dished out in Argyle and Bartonville lately.

Fort Worth is trying to figure out who will be the next mayor
.

Flower Mound politics is still crazy
but not nearly as crazy as the last election.

Dallas Area Residents for Responsible Drilling keeps us up-to-date on happenings in Big D.

Dish will have a new mayor soon. Calvin is leaving the town in the capable hands of William Sciscoe.

I’m not sure what is happening with political races in other areas. It will be interesting to see how many pro drilling office holders get the boot.

    Does anyone know anything about these people's stances on natural gas drilling? I'm guessing Betsy Price is the front runner – how about her?

    I bet industry will want Calvin back when Sciscoe takes over. He is a little less "diplomatic."

    one hopes that there is the plan to give Joe Barton the boot?
