An editing error in last week’s ongoing coverage of the district attorney’s race (“D.A.’s Race,” News, March 14) produced the erroneous statement that the Travis County Sheriff’s Officers Association represents the D.A. office’s correction officers. Of course, the association represents the correction officers employed by the Sheriff’s Office.

Due to an editing error in the March 14 News section, two stories reported and written by Richard Whittaker – “Stealth to the Right?” and “And They’re Off! … Again” – were mistakenly attributed to Lee Nichols.
