I hope so.
After a major loss in his school board race Scott Bowen immediately filed for State Representative. The district, House District 129, covers from Friendswood to Seabrook. During his terms on the CCISD Board Bowen was the center of controversy, bringing in his extreme right wing agenda. You can read about all of his controversies, and there are a lot, at Scott Bowen: A Threat to CCISD Education. He won reelection for a second term with less than 50% of the vote which two other candidates splitting the vote. When he ran for his third term he faced a real conservative and got his ass kicked.
HD129 is a highly gerrymandered district and whoever wins the Republican primary will probably win the general election. So will a Conservative jump in to challenge the MAGAt in the primary? As with CCISD, the constituents of HD129 deserve better and the true conservatives of the Republican Party knows Bowen is a conservative in name only. Not only does Bowen wear suits 2 sizes too small, he is awkward, has close relationships to extreme organizations, has been a lap dog to his MAGAt party, and has proven to have no useful political skills.
Look, as a Democrat I would love to see the conservatives take back their party from the chaos we currently have. Our Country needs it. Our State needs it. We can and will always disagree on some issues but we have common issues that affects everyone. Our home insurance is out of control, random irresponsible cuts to our Space program will affect our community, our electrical grid is still unstable, home prices are out of reach for many, and our businesses need legal workers. These are the issues facing us, not kissing trump’s ass, not vouchers, not made up issues like CRT and DEI.
Hopefully conservatives will challenge Bowen.
