Bay Area Houston

This will get interesting.

Last month Hayley Winkelmann turned in a motion to recall La Marque City Councilman Joseph Lowry which started a clock to collect about 190 signatures from District C voters. Today they turned in 268 signatures. Once the signatures are verified City Council will have to call a recall election. If that passes then an election to fill the position must be called. It’s not an easy process. Collecting that many signatures is also not very easy. In fact it is very hard work.

Lowry has been the center of controversy ever since being elected to the Council. As I said in previous post:

So in a nutshell what is happening in La Marque and why? The chaos in La Marque is mostly due to one person, Council Member Joseph Lowry. Lowry won his seat in District C just over a year ago and has brought divisiveness, pettiness, and chaos into city politics. He claims to be a “journalist” writing on a Facebook page with childish comments and doctored pictures of his fellow Council Members. His claims of corruption have been baseless and his personal attacks on members of Council and citizens have grown old. His pettiness makes my pettiness look petty. The infighting caused by Lowry was the main reason for a Council Member to resign his seat. You can search the Galveston Daily News for many articles concerning Lowry here.

Updates coming later.
