Latinos Are Leveraging Their Vote, While Many Black Continue to Give Their Vote Away to 'Do-Nothing' Politicians


Just last night, Democrats lost the 34th Congressional District seat of Texas. Why is this significant? Well, for the record, Democrats have held this Texas Congressional seat for more than 100 years. Did you hear me? I said, Republicans just flipped a "CONGRESSIONAL SEAT" in the Lone Star State, which has been under Democratic control for over a century. That being said, Mayra Flores (far left), defeating Dan Sanchez, for the 34th Congressional District seat, could be a signal that Jimmy L. Leon (top second from right), a Latino challenging Congressman Al Green for the 9th Congressional District of Texas, can make his race competitive if he gets the financial support he desperately needs. And the same goes for Carmen Maria Montiel, a Latina challenging Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee for the 18th Congressional District of Texas.


Carmen Maria Montiel, the Republican nominee seeking to unseat Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee in the 18th Congressional District of Texas, is pictured above with Herschel Walker, the Republican nominee running for U.S. Senate in Georgia, against Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock.


Jimmy Leon, the Republican nominee seeing to unseat Congressman Al Green in the 9th Congressional District of Texas, is pictured with Gov. Greg Abbott, who is a heavy favorite to soundly defeat Beto O'Rourke, his Democratic challenger. That being said, Deirdre Gilbert, running as "THE INDEPENDENT CANDIDATE" in the race for Governor of Texas, could pick up a lot of votes, from disgruntled Texans from all across the Lone Star State.

Latinos Are Leveraging Their Vote, While Many Black Continue to Give Their Vote Away to 'Do-Nothing' Politicians

Democrats are screwing up right and left right now. What am I talking about? Well, Democrats have lost momentum, and are in serious jeopardy of getting wiped out on November 8, 2022, but many haven’t received the memo just yet. Did you see what happened in that “SPECIAL ELECTION” between Mayra Flores, a Republican, and Dan Sanchez, a Democrat, in their fight for the 34th Congressional District of Texas? If not, ‘what had happened was’ a congressional seat that’s been held by Democrats for more than 100 years, has is now under Republican control, as Mayra Flores, the Republican, received 14,780 votes, for 50.98% of the vote, to defeat Dan Sanchez, the Democrat, who only received 12,560 votes for 43.33% of the vote, with all precincts reporting.

WHAT DOE THIS MEAN?

Well, Democrats are going to tell you that this victory doesn’t mean very much. However, it means a whole lot to Mayra Flores and a whole bunch of others. “For over 100 years, we have been taken for granted,” she stated at her election night watch party. She went on to declare, “I will show you what real representation looks like. I will represent all people.” And if you ask me, we incumbent Democrats like Congressman Al Green, the Democrat representing the 9th Congressional District of Texas, and his colleague, Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee, the Democrat representing the 18th Congressional District of Texas had better take notice.

CONGRESSIONAL SEATS IN PLAY?

Are the 9th and 18th Congressional seats in play during the 2022 Midterm Elections? Well, it depends on several factors. What you have to remember about the fight for the 34th Congressional seat that was won by Republicans last night, is that they were all in, as Flores and her allies spent over $1 million on television ads. As for Democrats, they pretty much tried to downplay the stakes. Even still, according to published reports, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee helped fund a $100,000 digital ad buy for Dan Sanchez, in the closing week of the campaign. And on top of that, the House Majority PAC, which happens to be the top Democratic super PAC in congressional races also tried to help Dan Flores out by launching a television ad campaign of more than $115,000.00 attacking the Mayra Flores, the Republican who won the seat.

JIMMY L. LEON IS RUNNING FOR CONGRESS AGAINST CONGRESSMAN AL GREEN ON NOVEMBER 8TH

On Tuesday, November 8, 2022, Jimmy L. Leon, a Republican Latino, is challenging sitting Congressman Al Green, for his 9th Congressional District seat, a seat he’s held since 2005. Can Jimmy L. Leon, make the race for the 9th Congressional District competitive on November 8th? Well, that depends on whether, or not, he gets the financial support he desperately needs to get his message out to the voters in the 9th Congressional District between now and Election Day!

THE 18TH CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT OF TEXAS CONSERVATIVE CANDIDATE


CARMEN MARIA MONTIEL FOR CONGRESS AGAINST CONGRESSWOMAN SHEILA JACKSON LEE ON NOVEMBER 8TH

What a lot of folks don’t realize is that the ethnicity of the people living inside the boundaries of the 18th Congressional District of Texas has been rapidly changing over the last decade. And now with these newly drawn boundaries, the 18th Congressional District could be put in play, if Republicans throw financial support behind Carmen Maria Montiel, the Republican Latina who is challenging “QUEEN SHEILA” whom many pundits feel is unbeatable.

Can Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee, get unseated by Carmen Maria Montiel, a Republican Latina on Tuesday, November 8, 2022, in the race for the 18th Congressional District of Texas? Well, with these high gas prices, inflation going through the roof, people getting murdered on the streets, and her poor job performance, “QUEEN SHEILA” could have her hands full with Carmen Maria Montiel, a beautiful Latina who was born in Maracaibo, Venezuela, and migrated to the United States in the late 1980s.

If her face looks familiar, that’s because Carmen Maria Montiel is a certified beauty queen, who entered the “MISS VENEZUELA PAGEANT” at age 19 and won. She was also Second Runner-Up in the Miss Universe Pageant back in 1994, according to her biography.

Back during the 2018 Midterm Election, Carmen Maria Montiel ran for the 29th Congressional seat as a Republican and didn’t make it out of the Republican Party Primary. She lost to a fellow Republican by the name of Phillip Aronoff by a slim margin of, 48.18% to 51.82%, in her first run for public office.

Fast forward to the 2022 Republican Party Primary, Carmen Maria Montiel appears to be ready to run a competitive race in the newly-drawn 18th Congressional District of Texas. Even though she was running unopposed, according to the Texas Secretary of state, 11,087 Republican Party Primary voters still cast their ballot for her back on Tuesday, March 1, 2022. Comparatively speaking, Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee was also running uncontested, and received over three times the number of votes, with 35,194 Democratic Party Primary voters casting their ballot for her.

FINAL THOUGHTS

Can Jimmy L. Leon, the Republican, unseat Congressman Al Green, the Democrat, on Tuesday, November 8, 2022, in the race for the 9th Congressional District of Texas? Yes, I’ve learned to ‘never say never when it comes to a political contest. Remember, the seat that Republicans won last night, June 14, 2022, in Texas had been held by Democrats for more than 100 years, before last night. That said, can Carmen Maria Montiel, the Republican dethrone Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee? Well, to do so, she’s going to need a lot more money and a lot of endorsements from “THE BLACK COMMUNITY” to even come close.

MAYOR KEVIN COLE: “Freedom – I believe freedom is the ability to say or think according to one’s beliefs without duress. I also believe we all have the free will for our own pursuit of happiness in this world. I have lived my life in a way to be in a position to have freedom of my time, freedom of my thought, freedom to live my faith, and long for everyone to do the same.”

In case you don’t know, African Americans have celebrated some great achievements since, June 19, 1865, the day Union soldiers arrived in Galveston to bring news of freedom to the last 250,000 enslaved Black people in Texas. That said, I’m not proud of the fact that it took two years after President Abraham Lincoln’s signing of the Emancipation Proclamation, for the word that my ancestors were free to make it to the plantations here in Texas. But nonetheless, I’m honored to declare that I’m a “FREE MAN” living my dream right now.

FREEDOM AIN’T FREE

In my opinion, too many of my people (Black folks), are still living on “MENTAL PLANTATIONS” right now Texas. And when it comes to Harris County, there’s a lot of work that’s still left to do as we press forward towards Tuesday, November 8, 2022, and beyond. That said, in my professional opinion, if we don’t break the “MENTAL CHAINS” that people are using to try and hold us, hostage, we’re going to lose the “POLITICAL STRENGTH” that our forefathers fought, bled, and died for us to enjoy.

FREEDOM TO CHOOSE

It’s important for my people (Black folks), to understand that voting is a personal decision. And nobody has ownership over our “GOD-GIVEN” right to pursue our own individual destiny as “GOD-ALMIGHTY” gives us strength. Nobody has the right to try and “SHAME US” into supporting their candidacies. Nobody has the right to tell us that we’re not Black if we don’t cast our vote for them. I’ll bet our ancestors were turning over in their graves back during the 2022 Presidential Election when they heard Joe Biden say that black voters who were torn between voting for him, or President Trump “ain’t black,” remarks that he was forced to apologize for – but I digress.

CELEBRATING JUNETEENTH

As part of our “2022 VOTER EDUCATION, MOBILIZATION, AND EMPOWERMENT INITIATIVE” that’s aimed at “PUTTING PEOPLE OVER POLITICS” in Harris County I would like to wish a few of our local leaders a “HAPPY JUNETEENTH HOLIDAY” as we kick off our push toward Tuesday, November 8, 2022, Midterm Election, in the Lone Star State.

Polls Show That Beto “O’Rourke Will Have A Tough Time Defeating Gov. Greg Abbott

AUBREY R. TAYLOR REPORTS©

The fight for Texas is going to be fierce. And believe it or not, Deirdre Gilbert, a “RISING POLITICAL STAR” is actually “IN THE DRIVER’S SEAT” right now. How? Well, with polls Gov. Greg Abbott (Republican) with a sizable lead over Beto O’Rourke (Democrat), in the Lone Star State. So, no matter how you look at it, Deirdre Gilbert running as an "INDEPENDENT CANDIDATE" for Governor of Texas on Tuesday, November 8, 2022, is going to cause some serious problems in urban areas across the State of Texas -- especially since there won't be any straight-ticket voting.

MEET DEIRDRE GILBERT

Deirdre Gilbert has earned her M.A. in Educational Administration, and her B.S. in Political Science and Mass Communication (Cum Laude) from Prairie View A&M University; she is a native Houstonian, a graduate of the public school system attending elementary, middle, and high school graduating from Madison high. Deirdre has resided in Harris County for over 40 years before settling in Fort Bend County for over 10 years. Deirdre is an educator with 26 years of experience working in Houston, Aldine, and Fort Bend School Districts and is a former Houston Independent School District teacher’s union representative.

Her mother was a key influence in her life. She was a community activist and the first black woman to run for Constable in Harris County. Deirdre is best known in the community and around the country for her fight, both personally and publicly, for justice for those of medical negligence. After losing her only child, Jocelyn, because of medical negligence, Deirdre confronted the medical community and the state agencies that support it. She stood not only for herself and in memory of her daughter, but on behalf of people around the state and across the country who have felt powerless in the wake of such devastating loss.

Deirdre has worked tirelessly in her own community of Sienna Plantation, further, she’s worked on issues such as denial of voting rights in local elections within Missouri City, and MUD District issues. She has spoken before the Texas Legislature and U.S. Congress in Washington D.C on civil rights. Deirdre has helped to shape legislation regarding whistleblowers, medical malpractice, and education. Deirdre is not afraid of a battle and is willing to speak for those who are unable to speak for themselves. In addition to helping those in her community, state, local and national, she also works for a non-profit that helps veterans find employment.

Deirdre has been capturing the attention of media nationally for some time. In 2007, she released her first book entitled, “Can I Just Have a Little Bit? A Little Bit of What?” Her recent work, “Momma Help Me Please,” was inspired by the first love of her life, her daughter Jocelyn.

Deirdre is an avid speaker at book clubs, churches, and professional, civic, and community organizations.

She has been featured in Beautifully Said Magazine and African American Newspaper; mentioned in Harper’s Magazine by Ralph Nader a strong advocate for justice, received professional recognition in Women on the Move section of the Houston Business Journal, and featured in Bronze Magazine several times and in Saved Magazine along with other powerful women in ministry such as Joyce Meyers. Deirdre was mentioned in Washington Post, Stat News, and several online publications regarding her stance on medical malpractice. This journey has led to the first Blog Talk Show “Life” Radio Show that focused on “victims” of medical malpractice and then rebranded with another show called “Med/Mal Radio Show-What’s Your Verdict and just recently Malpractice Diaries-MD –We Tell the Secrets they Keep.

Since 2011, Deirdre Gilbert has not backed down from her challenges, founding non-profits such as the National Medical Malpractice Advocacy Association (NMMAA), serving as its National Director, and Executive Director of the Jocelyn Y. Dickson Foundation. NMMAA is a non-partisan educational organization that was created to promote transparency, accountability and integrity in the medical profession. Through NMMAA’s educational endeavor, she advocates high standards of ethics and morality to ensure non-abuse of the powers entrusted to the profession by the American people. Under her direction, these non-profits have gained support from members of Congress, garnered attention and recognition among state lawmakers, and sparked open dialogue and inquiry into medical negligence. With her husband of 7 years, Mr. Kurt E. Gilbert, beside her, she has spoken boldly before Medical Boards, Government Agencies, the State Legislature, and the US Congress calling for repeal of TORT Reforms, review of the Information Act as it relates to medical doctors, greater accountability in the hospital industry, and Justice for All who fall victim to healthcare abuse. The core of her message is consistent, Justice for All.

Deirdre achieved a milestone twice, first when she was asked to speak at the Whistleblower’s Summit in Washington, DC 2016, and again in 2019 when she provided testimony at the Senate Judiciary Committee Hearings about the devastating effects of medical malpractice. She has spearheaded the nation’s 1st Medical Malpractice Conference that convened medical professionals, attorneys, civil rights leaders, social justice organizations, patient safety advocates, and legislative leaders. Her third milestone was when she threw her hat in the political ring and decided to run for Justice of the Peace, Pct. 2, Fort Bend County, TX. Deirdre assisted with having H.R. 614 resolution filed in the Texas Legislature, recognizing Medical Malpractice in the State of Texas. In addition, Deirdre created a new initiative, “The Medical Malpractice Right to Justice Project’s mission to assist those harmed by medical negligence and whose cases were never heard in a court of law, to bring these cases before a court based on evidence ranging from misstated/understated or erroneous death certificates, misstated/understated/overstated or erroneous expert reports, altered or falsified medical records, the existence of individual, hospital, physician, and institutional agencies conflict of interest.

Deirdre Gilbert was instrumental in getting the 1st proclamation in 2013 recognizing July as Medical Malpractice Month. Since then, the organization has been given recognition from the State of Missouri’s Governor Jeremiah W. Nixon, the State of Colorado’s Governor John Hickenlooper, and the State of Georgia’s Governor Nathan Deal. The organization has also received several congressional, state, and local recognition. Deirdre created the first PSA that aired on Harkins movie screens across the states in September 2016, promoting and educating the public on “Preventable Medical Mistakes.” In 2019 NMMAA received the 1st Enrolled House Resolution 86 (R) HR 614 by the House of Representatives of the 86th Texas Legislature recognizing July as Medical Malpractice Month.

Deirdre Gilbert was vital in the creation of the first chapter of attorneys in the State of Louisiana and Virginia that have acquired lobbyist that handles the legislative needs of NMMAA. The lobbying action is geared toward bill drafting and legislative reform to help those harmed by egregious acts of medical malpractice.

Deirdre has worked tirelessly with The Government Accountability Project, The Black Heritage Society, Greater Houston Coalition for Justice, Make It Safe Campaign, The National Association for Probate Reform & Advocacy, NAACP-Health Chair Committee Missouri City Chapter, NAACP-Fort Bend-Wharton Chapter, National Action Network to create the first medical malpractice health initiative, National Congress of Black Women, State of Texas Sunset Advisory Committee.


DEIRDRE GILBERT: "The message is that "VOTER FRAUD" is not going on, and that is far from the truth. January 6th happened, but that's not the story. Ballot harvesters are stealing elections through a variety of means. Voter Fraud is not just a ONE-PARTY issue." You can "CLICK HERE" for a closer look at this advertisement."


"Now is the time when our love for America must prevail. It is incumbent upon us to elect "PUBLIC SERVANTS" who understand that they work for us. We need "ELECTED OFFICIALS" in office who love "OUR CONSTITUTION" and the ideals that our nation was founded upon by our forefathers. We must make it our collective effort to "PUT PEOPLE OVER POLITICS" and do what's best for America during this crucial moment in time."

Favoritism and Party Politics Have No Place Inside Our Harris County Courtrooms

At the end of the day, the judicial races are the most important races on the ballot. That said, who we allow to put on that black robe and occupy judicial benches (especially in Harris County, Texas) matters a great deal. Over the years, through straight-ticket voting, and folks going into the polls playing "Eeny, Meeny, Miny, Moe" we've allowed a few bad folks to slip through the cracks. Now, I'm not trying to play party politics in any way, shape, or form, with my words. All I'm trying to say is that nobody is perfect, but if we make it our goal to elevate people who fear God and have a backbone into positions of authority, every one of us will be afforded the opportunity to live our best life.
