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?
MARILYN BURGESS: “There are two main differences between me and the incumbent District Clerk. The first is that I will be a working district clerk, not a figurehead. Your tax dollars pay the elected official a good salary to manage an annual budget of $35 million and a staff of over 500, but the incumbent is an absentee manager, leaving this vital office rudderless. I have a strong work ethic and will earn every dollar of my salary. I will be present and accessible to both the employees and the public this department serves.
Secondly, the incumbent has so poorly managed the department’s budget that he cannot pay the people who do the real work of the department a fair wage, resulting in low morale and high turnover. This contrasts with the positions my opponent has created for political cronies, with high salaries, but very little contribution to the overall operations of the department. As a CPA, I will manage the budget to get the most out of every dollar and eliminate waste and redundant positions. There is so much opportunity to improve efficiencies and save tax dollars, and I am ready for the task and excited about the prospects."
