“So many women around Texas and America are saying, `Wish Ann was here, for us and for Hillary,'” a female voiceover says on the video.
“Today Ann would be asking all of us to make a statement. She would be traveling to every small town and big city in Texas, urging us all to take a stand, be counted, to make a difference, to make history,” it says while a picture of Richards and Clinton appears on the screen. “This one’s for Texas. This one’s for our country. This one’s for Ann.”
