Lupe Valdez was sworn in Friday as the new Dallas County sheriff. She's the first Latina, the first openly gay person, and the first Democrat in a long damn time to hold that countywide office.
The Dallas News yesterday had a good profile of Valdez, while on the op ed page of that paper she shared her New Year's resolutions. UPDATE: The Dallas Voice also profiled Valdez this week, and the Dallas News elsewhere named Valdez number 6 on their top ten Texans of the year, a list probably aptly headed by presidential political adviser Karl Rove.
