Who is running for Houston Mayor?

And who shouldn’t be running for Houston Mayor?

According to the Click2Houston there are 18 candidates running for Mayor of Houston and 12 shouldn’t be for a number of reasons. Running for Mayor isn’t a game. It requires money, lots of money. It requires experience in some aspect of governing such as prior elected official experience, or maybe experience working with the city, or experience in doing business with the city. With that in mind the only candidates worth considering are:

John WhimireTexas House Member, Texas Senate Member
Sheila Jackson LeeFormer City Council Member, Congresswoman
Lee KaplanBusinessman
Golbert GarciaAttorney, Metro Board
Robert GallegosCity Councilmember
Jack ChristieFormer City Council Member

The rest below should really consider running for something that fits with their skill set. Until then focus on the candidates listed above for Houston Mayor.

Gaylon S. Caldwell
Annie “Mama” Garcia
M. “Griff” Griffin

B. Ivy
