CROSS-POSTED AT DAILY KOS
As you all probably know, I am the Democratic Nominee for the 151st Civil District Court of Harris County, Texas. This is the county that contains Houston. It is a huge county, with 1.9 million voters. Bigger than many states.
For about 15 years, since Ann Richards was defeated by Shrub, the Republicans have dominated this state, and this County. There are zero county-wide Democratic office-holders. Our County Judge (head county official), Sheriff, DA, County Attorney, Tax-Assessor/Collector, County Clerk, District Clerk, all of our county court and district court judges, appellate judges and all through the state Supreme Court are all Republicans.
Houston, in contrast, has a Democratic Mayor (Bill White) and a Democrat dominated City Council.
