Councilwoman Tarsha Jackson (District B), Councilwoman Carolyn Evans Shabazz (District D), Councilwoman Tiffany D. Thomas (District F), Councilman Edward Pollard (District J), Councilwoman Martha Castex Tatum (District K), and Councilwoman Letitia Plummer (At-Large Position 4) make up the African American contingent on Houston's City Council.

Two of These Six Black City Council Members Need to Be Voted Straight Out of Office on Tuesday, November 7, 2023

AUBREY R. TAYLOR REPORTS©

I've had a chance to read all (22-PAGES) of the lawsuit that was filed by (LULAC) LEAGUE OF UNITED LATIN AMERICAN CITIZENS (LULAC), a nonprofit Latino civil rights organization; Cristina Acosta; Ivan Castillo; Anthony Rios; and Ivan Sanchez yesterday in Federal Court. Do I agree with LULAC's lawsuit? Well, that depends on when I step back and look at the bigger picture. Where are they going with this? Something tells me that my people are about to get the short end of the stick somewhere along the line if this lawsuit is successful.

I spent the last two years trying to warn my community about the purging project I'd uncovered in the Harris County Courts, but nobody paid any attention to me. And then came Tuesday, November 8, 2022, and just like clockwork Harris County, Texas went "A PURPLISH COLOR" and the only Democrats to lose "COUNTYWIDE RACES" all turned out to be African Americans. Now, I hate to say, "I TOLD YOU SO," but I did. 

"FOUR REJECTED BLACKS."


As a recap, Judge Ronisha Bowman (bottom second from right), a Black Democrat female was rejected by Democrats and unseated by former Judge Paula Goodhart in her countywide race for Judge, County Criminal Court at Law No. 2. Attorney Porscha Natasha Brown (bottom first from left), a Black Democrat female was rejected by Democrats and was defeated by Attorney Leslie Johnson in her countywide race for Judge, County Criminal Court at Law No. 3. Attorney Gemayel L. Haynes (top first from left) was rejected by Democrats and defeated by former Judge Kristin Guiney in the race District Judge, 183rd Criminal District Court. And Attorney Je'Rell Rogers was also rejected by Democrats and defeated by Attorney Jessica N. Padilla in the race for Judge, County Criminal Court at Law No. 14, on Tuesday, November 8, 2022, in Harris County, Texas.

THE BIG LOSERS?

If you take a moment and look over the lawsuit that was filed in Federal Court by LULAC yesterday, what you will clearly see is that the groundworks are now being laid for a serious "FIGHT FOR TERRITORY" between "BLACKS AND BROWNS" for coveted seats on Houston City Council on Tuesday, November 7, 2023, and you can expect the same for coveted judicial positions in the 2024 Democratic Primary as well. Why? Well, Blacks are the only ethnic group who still blindly vote for Democrats as a bloc. Therefore, as every other minority group (including Hispanics) are continuing to flourish and evolve, Blacks are remaining stuck in a 1960s way of thinking and beginning to get left behind.

What's hurting the Black community the most, is our inability to shift with changing political tides. We continuously find ourselves in a "REACTIONARY MODE" rather than in a posture of "PROGRESSIVELY THINKING" about our futures and the futures of our future generations.

As a group, we also rely too much on symbolism when playing the political game. We're losing generations of leaders by allowing people to remain in "ELECTED POSITIONS" for 30, 40, and 50 years, with no accountability. 

So, if you take a moment to read, (LUCAC) lawsuit that was filed in Federal Court yesterday, please ask yourself, "Why Aren't Black Organizations Fighting For Blacks," in the way that the League of United Latin Americans Citizens are fighting for Hispanics?

PLAINTIFFS’ ORIGINAL COMPLAINT FOR DECLARATORY JUDGMENT AND INJUNCTIVE RELIEF

I. INTRODUCTION

1. Only two Hispanic candidates have ever been elected to Houston’s at-large districts in the history of the City. At the same time, Latinos make up a strong plurality or near majority of Houston’s total population. The Latino voters of Houston have waited for fair redistricting plans. They have waited for years for the City of Houston to end its long relationship with “at-large” districts that dilute the electoral strength of Hispanics. The time has come to replace this old election system that functions solely to dilute the power of Houston’s Latino voters.

2. Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, 52 U.S.C. Section 10301 et seq. (Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, as amended) prohibits enforcement of any voting qualification, prerequisite to voting, standard, practice, or procedure that results in the denial or abridgment of the right to vote on account of race, color, or language minority status.


3. This suit is brought under the Voting Rights Act to challenge the “at-large” election system used by the City of Houston to elect five of its council members, which has deprived hundreds of thousands of minority voters in Houston of their voting rights guaranteed by law.

"GAME-CHANGER."


Judge Sandra Peake (Democrat), was a bonified, seasoned attorney before she ever ran for a judicial position. That being said, she also ran for local judicial positions several times before winning. If you ask me, Judge Sandra J. Peake is the embodiment of what it means never give up. And on Tuesday, November 8, 2022, I am proud to say that I endorsed Judge Sandra Peake, as I've always done, and she won her bid for re-election, over Leonel Leo Farias, II, by a wide margin. Comparatively speaking, Judge Sandra received 548,215 votes, for 51.90% of the vote, and her opponent, Leonel Leo Farias II, only received 507,991 votes, for 48.10% of the vote.

"GAME-CHANGER."


Paula Goodhart (Republican), was endorsed by me over Judge Ronnisha Bowman (Democrat), in the race for Judge, County Criminal Court at Law No. 2, in Harris County, Texas, and she emerged victorious by a slim margin of 4,889 votes with 1,058,707 votes cast in their race.

"GAME-CHANGER."


Leslie Johnson (Republican), was endorsed by me over Porscha Natasha Brown (Democrat), in the race for Judge, County Criminal Court at Law No. 3, in Harris County, Texas, and she emerged victorious by a very slim margin of 267 votes with 1,059,382 votes cast in their race.

"GAME-CHANGER."


Jessica N. Padilla (Republican), was endorsed by me over Je’Rell A. Rogers (Democrat), in the race for Judge, County Criminal Court at Law No. 14, in Harris County, Texas, and she emerged victorious by a slim margin of 14,290 votes with 1,053 votes cast in their race.
