AUBREY R. TAYLOR: Why should voters in Harris County, Texas cast their ballot for you over your opponent on Tuesday, November 6, 2018, in the Midterm Election?

JUDGE ALICIA FRANKLIN YORK: “If statistics are correct that over 50% of voters may end up in a family court, voters would be wise to choose a candidate that will protect their family and property rights. I am that candidate. I am the current judge of the 311th District court who is knowledgeable, experienced, fair and follows the law. I empathize with the struggles families go through in family courts and I have been there to serve in an efficient, yet compassionate manner. I have shown commitment to families and children for the past fifteen years, both as a licensed attorney representing children, husband, wives, mothers, fathers, grandparents, relatives, and foster-parents and as a Judge for the past four years, making a difference for families. In addition to being Judge of this Court, I have volunteered hundreds of hours presiding as Judge of the only Harris County Family Drug Court. As a first-generation immigrant, I appreciate the cultural differences within our diverse county. I have a proven track record of service, success, and fairness to all. I am ready on day one and I don’t have to learn on the job with your family, unlike my opponent. I am the BEST QUALIFIED candidate.”

ARE YOU HOPING FOR A BLUE WAVE OR RED STORM ON NOVEMBER 6TH?

"Whether you’re a Democrat hoping for a “BLUE WAVE” to flow through Harris County, Texas, or a “REPUBLICAN” looking for a “RED STORM” to blow through town you had better not take any vote for granted in the Tuesday, November 6, 2018, Midterm Election whereas Harris County, Texas is concerned. And with that said, I am imploring all of my loyal readers to tell all of their family, friends, associates, and passers-by about the importance of every vote in what I’m expecting to be one of the most important elections of our lifetime. And please don’t forget that early voting will begin on Monday, October 22, 2018, and end on Friday, November 2, 2018. And finally, to avoid the long lines on Election Day, you are strongly encouraged to vote early at one of the (46) forty-six "EARLY VOTING LOCATIONS" conveniently located throughout Harris County, Texas."

AUBREY R. TAYLOR: Why should voters in Harris County, Texas cast their ballot for you over your opponent on Tuesday, November 6, 2018, in the Midterm Election?

ATTORNEY GERMAINE TANNER: “As a 15-year practicing attorney, I have prosecuted and defended, and in some cases, been appointed, to over 500 family law cases in Harris County involving divorces with complex property and children’s issues, child support establishment, and enforcement, custody, modifications, and appeals. I’ve served as a Mediator, Attorney ad Litem, Amicus Attorney, and Special Master. I’ve taught continuing legal education courses on family law issues to attorneys and paralegals. As a working mother, I understand the challenges of parenting, decision-making, and balance. As an attorney and a mom, I understand the everyday struggles of family life. I, like you, want what’s best for our children. When there’s a divorce, with child support and custody issues, we want the judge to have the experience to both follow the law and rule with the heart of a caring parent. I’ve spent my entire legal career assisting families in Harris County and I know that we need a judge who can draw on the wisdom learned from both professional and life experiences, to make the best decisions for our families. I am the BEST QUALIFIED and ONLY candidate who meets these qualities.”

What I Believe This Black Girl Magic HCDP Thing is All About by Aubrey R. Taylor, Publisher of Houston Business Connections Magazine©



Lashawn A. Williams, Germaine Tanner, Toria J. Finch, Erica Hughes, Carl Davis, Judge Ramona Franklin, Sedrick T. Walker II, and Shannon Baldwin were just a few of the distinguished individuals who were on hand at the "BLACK GIRL MAGIC" launch party held at Melodrama Boutique.

What I Believe Black Girl Magic is All About by Aubrey R. Taylor, Publisher of Houston Business Connections Magazine©

AUBREY R. TAYLOR REPORTS©

At first glance, one might not understand what Lillie Schechter, Chairman of the Harris County Democratic Party is trying to do by specifically highlighting their nineteen 2018 African American female judicial candidates. But, a closer look reveals that she just might be on to something. You have to keep in mind that traditionally, African American women have been the backbone of the Democratic Party -- just never as the focal point as it relates to their candidacies. But 2018, is different -- these women have stepped up to the plate in these 2018 midterms. And for good reason, after all, they are the primary reason the United States of America was able to elect Barack Obama as the first Black President back in the 2008 Presidential Election. Yes, this is a very risky move. Yes, it’s a play on race. But no, this is not race-baiting. And nope, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with promoting “BLACKNESS” during these very divisive and polarizing political times. But will it work is the million-dollar question? And that my friend, is a question the Harris County voters will answer for us on Tuesday, November 6, 2018, when Democrats and Republican nominees square off. But I will endeavor to explain what I see happening, and why "BLACK GIRL MAGIC" was all the rave on Sunday, August 26, 2018, at the Melodrama Boutique, located at 5306 Almeda Road – a cozy, personable and sophisticated little boutique owned by Jackie Adams, that’s conveniently located between Third Ward and the Museum District.




Lucia G. Bates, Erica Hughes, Sandra J. Peake, Cassandra Y. Hollemon, Germaine Tanner, Ronnisha Bowman, Linda Dunson, Judge Maria T. Jackson (black and white dress), Angela Graves Harrington, Dedra Davis, Shannon Baldwin, Latosha Lewis Payne, Judge Ramona Franklin, Tonya Jones, Sharon Burney, Michelle Moore, Lori Chambers Gray, Toria J. Finch, and LaShawn A. Williams are the nineteen African American Democratic Judicial nominees who will appear on the Tuesday, November 6, 2018 Midterm ballot in Harris County.

Lillie Schechter, the Harris County Democratic Party chair, speaking to the massive crowd at the Melodrama Boutique for the "BLACK GIRL MAGIC" launch party on Sunday, August 26, 2018.

WHAT IS BLACK GIRL MAGIC?

According to published reports, "BLACK GIRL MAGIC" is both a concept and a movement that was popularized by CaShawn Thompson back in 2013. This concept is intended as a way to celebrate the beauty, power, and resilience of black women. It's also a way of congratulating black women for their accomplishments. So, in a nutshell, what Lillie Schechter and the Harris County Democratic Party is doing by way of their creative license is to put these nineteen African American women on full display for the world to see, honor, recognize and celebrate.

ADVERTISING AND BRANDING MUST COME TOGETHER

What is advertising? In the basic sense, advertising is simply a communication method aimed to get the user of a product or a target audience of people interested in a product or service. The person advertising the product, or service is in many cases looking to influence their target audience and implore then to act, or buy what they’re selling. So, like it or not, the Harris County Democratic Party has a product they're trying to promote to Harris County, Texas voters on Tuesday, November 6, 2018. What is their product? And who is the target audience they’re trying to reach? Well, in this case, the nineteen African American women running for judicial positions on Tuesday, November 6, 2018, are the product Democrats are pushing. And Schechter appears to be going straight after the African American vote – the most highly coveted vote in America. Now, I don’t necessarily know if I would be using “BLACK GIRL MAGIC” as the catchphrase to accomplish this objective, but that’s what they’ve decided to do.

What is marketing? In my opinion, marketing is more of a management process – a way that goods and services move from conceptualization to the customer. In case you don’t know, effective marketing will typically include these four tenets; IDENTIFICATION, PRICE DETERMINATION, A DISTRIBUTION CHANNEL, AND A PROMOTIONAL STRATEGY. And just in case you’re wondering, I saw each of these tenets on display on yesterday, Sunday, August 26, 2018, at the Melodrama Boutique. Again, I probably would not be using “BLACK GIRL MAGIC” as the means of outreach – but the Harris County Democratic Party has a very highly-respected public relations expert by the name of Dallas Jones on their team. So, I’m sure that Jones and others have looked at the risk factors as it relates to the possible alienation of white Democratic voters and decided that it was a risk worth taking. 



Dallas Jones is in the background with his trusty cell phone in hand as Antron D. Johnson, Tanicka Richardson, Alicia Tolbert, and La Sonya Polk pose for this photo at the Melodrama Boutique.

WHO IS DALLAS JONES?

Dallas Jones is the president and CEO of Elite Change, Inc., a public affairs and strategic communications firm focused on influencing today’s ever-changing political, business, and public landscape according to their website. Since its founding, Elite Change has become a nationally recognized firm operating at all levels of the public, government, and business sectors. Again, according to their website, Elite Change, Inc., endeavors to stay on the cutting edge of all facets of effective strategy, and appears to be very good at understanding current trends, and then using those trends to help their clients win.

IDENTIFICATION: Lillie Schechter and the Harris County Democratic Party appear to believe that having nineteen African-American female judicial candidates on their ballot gives them an edge with African American voters in Harris County, Texas.

PRICE DETERMINATION: Don't get it twisted, I don’t believe that Lillie Schechter, or the Harris County Democratic Party (as an organization) are treating this powerful group of highly respected and distinguished women as some sort of commodity that's on sale. What I think they’re doing here is saying look at what we've accomplished. We are on the cusp of a history-making feat in Harris County, and we need you guys (THE AFRICAN-AMERICAN COMMUNITY) to help us put these duly-qualified candidates in office – and doing so would be in your best interest.

DISTRIBUTION CHANNELS: Well, to their credit, the Harris County Democratic Party did choose an African American businesswoman to support. I’m assuming that they paid something for Jackie Adams to host the “BLACK GIRL MAGIC” launch party on a Sunday – especially when Melodrama is typically closed on Sundays. Anyways, according to Dallas Jones you can expect to hear more about their next step – perhaps sometime shortly after Labor Day.

PROMOTIONAL STRATEGY: To understand what the Harris County Democrats are trying to do here, you must first understand that Lillie Schechter is really a political strategist and fundraiser. And just in case you don’t know, Schechter has been advising local and national Democratic candidates for nearly a decade. Now, while this is perhaps a major test for her, what she did show yesterday, with the roll-out of “BLACK GIRL MAGIC” is that she’s not afraid to lay-it-all-on-the-line during this crucial moment in American history. Now, I’m of the opinion that promoting race is a risky proposition, but from what I saw at Melodrama Boutique, the African-American women in attendance did not seem to have any problems whatsoever with being called Black girls.

THE BLACK GIRL MAGIC BRAND

So, what is branding? In my opinion, branding is more about connectivity than anything else. However, don’t confuse passing out a push card, or handing out business cards with branding. Passing out push cards could perhaps lead to a branding experience, but the act of passing out promotional items is related more to advertising and marketing. While passing out push cards is an excellent way to market yourself – it isn’t necessarily branding yourself. Branding gives meaning to something – it’s getting your product, service, or in the case of the “BLACK GIRL MAGIC” phrase to stick in the minds of African American female voters. So, what the Harris County Democratic Party is trying to do here, is take the “BLACK GIRL MAGIC” phrase that African American women have clearly embraced (at least from what I saw on yesterday) and are hoping that the energy and connectivity created around these nineteen African-American 2018 judicial candidates will drive African-American female voters to the polls on Tuesday, November 6, 2018. How will this help other Democrats? I’m glad you asked. I truly believe that Lillie Schechter is hoping for the end result to be an increase in straight-ticket voters for Democrats up and down the ballot – so that’s my take.

HARRIS COUNTY STRONG



A FIGHT FOR TERRITORY

Make no mistake about it, Tuesday, November 6, 2018, won't be business as usual as it pertains to Midterm Elections in Harris County, Texas. Nope, we are looking at an election turnout of epic proportions in my opinion -- a serious fight for territory. So whether you are looking to see a  “BLUEWAVE”, flow through Harris County, or hoping for a “REDSTORM” to blow through town, you had best believe that your vote will matter. So, I’m imploring every open-minded Texans to pray for our “PUBLIC SERVANTS” and to “FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT” by becoming more actively engaged, mobilized and involved in the process of electing "DULY-QUALIFIED" candidates who value, respect, and appreciate our vote, prayers, and support at the ballot box. And please, please, please, don't forget that the early voting period will begin on Monday, October 22, 2018, and end on Friday, November 2, 2018.

Judge Jackson is one of the Top Democrats on the 2018 Democratic Statewide Ticket says Aubrey R. Taylor, publisher of Houston Business Connections Magazine©

One of the top statewide Democratic candidates on Tuesday, November 6, 2018, Midterm Election ballot in Texas, Judge Maria T. Jackson should garner votes from non-straight ticket voters from both major political parties, independents and Libertarians too in my opinion. In case you don’t already know, only two Democratic candidates received more statewide votes than Judge Maria T. Jackson back in the Tuesday, March 6, 2018, Democratic Primary. The #1 statewide Democratic vote-getter was Justin Nelson (888,444) who is running for Attorney General. The #2 statewide Democratic vote-getter was Kim Olson (883,575) who is running for Agriculture Commissioner. And our very own Judge Maria T. Jackson (878,581) was the #3 statewide vote-getter back in the Tuesday, March 6, 2018, Democratic Party Primary in Texas. So, if you're out there looking for a candidate who is experienced, fair, and ready to administer blind-fold justice in cases brought before the highest court for criminal appeals in the State of Texas – look no further than Judge Maria T. Jackson on Tuesday, November 6, 2018.

Pastor Remus Wright with a Few 2018 Duly-Qualified Candidates this Past Sunday, August 12, 2018 at The Fountain of Praise in Houston



A few of the individuals who worshiped with Pastor Remus Wright and the entire Fountain of Praise family at 13950 Hillcroft Avenue in Houston, Texas on last Sunday, August 12, 2018, were (from left to right): Lori Chambers Gray, Shannon Baldwin, Toria J.

Houston Business Connections Magazine© is Calling on More Pastors Like Remus Wright to Remind Congregants About the Upcoming Tuesday, November 6, 2018, Midterm Election

AUBREY R. TAYLOR REPORTS©

One of the most misunderstood terms you're going to hear thrown around over the next few months will undoubtedly be the one related to the "Separation of Church and State." Look, guys, the aforementioned paraphrase was not intended to be misinterpreted to mean that our churches cannot be involved in the political process. This was simply a paraphrase by Thomas Jefferson that related to our First Amendment rights which states that our United States Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, and was intended to keep Congress from prohibiting the free exercise of our religious freedoms in my opinion. Now, I'm not a lawyer, judge, or constitutional scholar. However, I am the publisher of Houston Business Connections Newspaper©. And I appreciate pastors/community leaders like Pastor Remus Wright, the Senior Pastor of the Fountain of Praise that's located at 13950 Hillcroft Avenue in Houston, Texas for educating their congregants about the importance of participating in the process of electing those who govern over us. And one of the best ways to do this is to allow our “PUBLIC SERVANTS” and candidates running for public office to introduce themselves to churchgoers on Sundays between now and Tuesday, November 6, 2018. So, to this end, on behalf of Houston Business Connections Magazine©, I would like to thank Pastor Remus Wright and the entire Fountain of Praise Church family for their involvement in the process of allowing "DULY-QUALIFIED" candidates to introduce themselves last weekend on Sunday, August 12, 2018. After all, Proverbs 29.2 in the "NEW LIVING TRANSLATION" of the Holy Bible states this, "When the godly are in authority, the people rejoice. But when the wicked are in power, they groan.”

GOD CARES ABOUT ELECTIONS

I’m not here to take sides! However, I am here because it’s time for someone to step up and promote our elections in a positive way aimed at helping every warm-blooded Texan in their quest to identify people who value, respect, and appreciate their vote, prayers, and support. So, to this end, I'm not advocating for a "BLUEWAVE" or a "REDSTORM" on Tuesday, November 6, 2018, in Harris County, Texas. My main goal over the next few months is to remind everyone in my sphere of influence that our God cares about everything that affects our lives. And if you believe this to be true, then you must also come to the realization that God cares about our society and how we're governed. I'm not trying to preach here, because I'm not a preacher. However, God would not have commanded us to pray for our government and its leaders if He didn't care about our political process. But don't take my word for it, 1 Timothy 2:1-3 in the King James Version of the Holy Bible is very clear on this matter, as it states, "(VERSE 1) EXHORT therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions and giving of thanks, be made for all men; (VERSE 2) For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. (VERSE 3) For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior…”

Judge Michelle Slaughter, Pictured with Lt. Col. Allen West is Expected to Roll to Victory on Tuesday, November 6, 2018, says Aubrey R. Taylor, publisher of Houston Business Connections Magazine©

I'm expecting for Judge Michelle Slaughter to roll to victory over her Libertarian Party challenger on Tuesday, November 6, 2018. After all, she's already faced her toughest challenge, which was to win the Republican nomination. And she did so in good-fashion over two worthy fellow Republicans back in the Tuesday, March 6, 2018, Republican Party Primary. So, as a refresher, Judge Michelle Slaughter received more votes than both her Republican Party Primary opponents combined by garnering 669,949 statewide votes, while Jay Brandon received 389,753 statewide votes, and Dib Waldrip received 208,179 statewide votes respectively. Again, I'm expecting for Judge Michelle Slaughter to handily defeat Mark Ash, her Libertarian challenger. So, if you're out there looking for a constitutional conservative judge and originalist who has presided over thousands of felony criminal cases and well over a hundred felony criminal jury trials ranging from state-jail felonies to capital murder cases you should look no further than Judge Michelle Slaughter2018 Candidate for Judge, Texas Court of Criminal Appeals, Place 8 on Tuesday, November 6, 2018, in the Lone Star State.
