F.E. (SandraDunn) Dunaway worried her campaign for mayor of Amarillo would become a media circus.

When the transgender woman announced in February her plans to run in the May 14 city election the news ricocheted through the Internet, picked up by mainstream media, bloggers and rights organizations alike.

"I don't want this campaign being about me being transgender," said Dunaway, who lives as Sandra Dunn. "I want it to be about what I do, what I support."
