City Council candidate says he should be eligible to run, despite killing man

AUSTIN (KXAN) — A man convicted of killing someone launched his campaign for Austin City Council Tuesday night.
The candidate’s supporters gathered in northeast Austin to celebrate his campaign kickoff.
Lewis Conway Jr. is drawing a lot of attention, all because of his criminal history.
“I felt like my life was over when I was arrested,” Conway said.
He’s trying something unprecedented, at least in Austin, according to the Office of the Texas Secretary of State.
