JUDGE-ELECT DASEAN JONES UNSEATED JUDGE CATHERINE EVANS IN THE RACE FOR JUDGE, 180TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT IN HARRIS COUNTY, TEXAS

In case you don’t know, Judge-Elect DaSean Jones, he’s a decorated U.S. Army combat veteran, who wants to institute alternative sentencing initiatives that are not solely punitive, but rehabilitative in nature. And by unseating Judge Catherine Evans in the race for District Judge, 180th Judicial District Court back on Tuesday, November 6, 2018, he will more than likely earn the opportunity to do just that. Although he’s a quiet and reserved professional, Judge-Elect Jones has an incredibly interesting set of life experiences that’s shaped his unique perspective. According to him, he believes that the people who make the life decisions for so many of Harris County's citizens have either lacked relevant life experience, or don’t share in the same, or similar life experiences as the men and women who they’ve been punishing. While straight-ticket voting was indeed a contributing factor in his victory over Judge Evans, he and other African American men running for county-wide offices in Harris County may find themselves facing an uphill battle in future elections. Why? Judge-Elect Jones may not have won his race without the 104,698 straight-ticket voting cushion he received from Democratic voters in Harris County, Texas back on Tuesday, November 6, 2018, in the midterm election. Here’s why: DaSean Jones received 636,029 overall votes. When you subtract the 514,758 straight-ticket votes, you come up with 121,271 votes. Comparatively speaking, if you subtract the 410,060 straight-ticket votes, Judge Catherine Evans received from her overall vote total of 545,889 you come up with 135,829 votes. Now, please keep in mind that this analysis is not meant to take away from, or diminish the victory achieved by Judge-Elect DaSean Jones, but rather to illustrate how straight-ticket voting will impact local races in upcoming elections in the 2020 Presidential Election Cycle and beyond. How can I say this, well, we stripped away the straight-ticket votes garnered by both candidates in this race, the bottom-line numbers reveal that Judge Catherine Evans would have perhaps defeated Judge-Elect DaSean Jones by an approximate margin of 14,558 votes – hypothetically speaking. Again, this formula is not an exact science, but rather a formula that can be used to measure the strength of candidacies going forward. And more directly, it shows that African American males may need a little assistance if they are to remain relevant in future Harris County, Texas elections when straight-ticket voting becomes a thing of the past.
