Bay Area Houston

As Tony Buzbee said, he fights with both hands, drinks with both hands and will beat off his opponents in District G with both hands.

OMG. Just what we need in the race for District G, a damn freak show. Again. Four years ago Buzbee spent $13 Million of his own money in a race for Mayor. He ended in a runoff with Mayor Turner then got wiped out and went into political hiding for 4 years popping up for air to defend Ken Paxton in his impeachment trial.

According to the Houston Chronicle Buzbee was escorted through city hall by former Council Member Greg Travis. Who is Greg Travis? Glad you asked…..Travis resigned from city council to run for State Representative. He lost. He also resigned from all his committee assignments leaving the hard work to his colleagues. He also made racist comments about Michelle Obama with many calling for his resignation. That is who Tony Buzbee has sided with.

During his race for Mayor Buzbee attempted to play both sides of the political aisle, donating $90,000 to the Harris County Democratic Party, donating to the Gay Caucus, hosting a fundraiser for Donald Trump at his home, and seeking the endorsement from Steven Hotze an anti-gay hate monger. It didn’t work. He was boo-ed out of the room at the Democratic Executive Committee meeting and Hotze eventually pulled his endorsement. Even the Harris County Republican Party refused to endorse Buzbee.

Buzbee received the endorsement from the Houston Fire Fighters in the runoff. The Fire Fighters had previously endorsed Dwight Boykins as well as Anthony Dolcefino, one of the worst candidates to have run for city council. Buzbee was in good company.

Buzbee will probably spend another couple of million of his own money against current incumbent Mary Nan Huffman. Huffman has $100,000 cash on hand.
