The Ugly. Who in the f*ck is Willie Davis? Davis is a right wing Pastor who tends to run for something, anything, and loses. He received 33% of the vote for At Large 2 and will head into a runoff with Nick Hellyar. Davis is endorsed by Aubrey Taylor the right wing blogger who was indicted for assaulting Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee’s campaign staff. Hellyar was endorsed by the Houston Chronicle. Hellyar knows what he is going. Davis does not. Go fuckin figure.

Leticia Plummer will go to a runoff with Roy Morales, another “run for anything” candidate who has lost many times over. That wasn’t expected.

Tony Buzbee goes to a runoff with the incumbent. For fuck sakes voters in District G. WTF? Are you that stupid to want Buzbee in office?

The race for Controller will go to a runoff. The lefties of the party want a progressive, young, candidate even if he is the least qualified for the job. The republicans want a MAGAt even though there is a great republican candidate on the ballot with excellent experience for the job. Hollins and Sanchez will go to a runoff in December.

The Bad. Clear Lake and Kingwood selected a MAGAt republican to represent them on Council. Fred Flickinger is a MAGAt republican. A full blown MAGAt. Let’s give him a chance like we gave Trump a chance in 2016. LOL. Look to the voters in Clear Lake and Kingwood to vote for Trump in 2024 even if he is in jail.

Conchita Reyes did not make the runoff. She was by far the best candidate for At Large 1. Miles, the Democrat/Republican will face Julian Ramirez in the runoff.

The Good. Lots of good in this election. Whitmire and Lee, as expected, will enter a runoff for Mayor. Both are capable of doing the job. One will win in December. As I have said in the past:

Unfortunately, like it or not, deserving or not, the Congresswoman is a lightning rod for the right much like Ted Cruz is for the left. But unlike Ted Cruz I doubt she would get boo-ed at a parade. 

She might not get boo-ed that won’t help her win in December. Whitmire has a positive message and broad support in a non partisan race. Lee has the lefties who will stick with her but that probably won’t overcome the lightning rod affect.

Richard Cantu will be in a runoff with Twila Carter. He is the best for that position. Sallie Alcorn stomped her opponents.

All CCISD propositions won. Thanks to the voters in the district!
