One on one with Sri Kulkarni, Democratic candidate for CD 22

HOUSTON -  Two years ago Democrat Sri Kulkarni came within five points of upsetting long-time incumbent Pete Olson in the congressional district dominated by Ft. Bend County. This time around, the former diplomat and direct descendant of Sam Houston believes his progressive message will prevail over Republican Troy Nehls in a "battleground race" most experts rate a "toss-up".
