Jacquie Baly Has Endorsed Bruce Bain Over Judge Ursula Hall in the Race for the 165th District Court in Harris County, Texas 

AUBREY R. TAYLOR REPORTS© 

Make no mistake about it we’re definitely witnessing a “PARADIGM SHIFT IN AMERICA” in these 2020 ELECTIONS if you ask me. What am I talking about? Well, according to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, a paradigm shift is an important change that happens when the usual way of thinking about or doing something is replaced by a new and different way. And thus the new way of doing things brings about a paradigm shift in our understanding and evolution. So, that being said, I’ve been in involved in politics in one facet or another for nearly 30-years. During this time, I can’t recall ever seeing the Honorable Jacquie Baly endorse a judicial candidate in Harris County, Texas. Nope, this well known, Political Analyst, On Air Talent at FOX 26 Houston, Professor, Business Owner, Philanthropist and mother normally stays away from issuing endorsements in Harris County judicial races. That’s why I was surprised when Bruce Bain tagged me back on August 22, 2020, in a Facebook post stating that he had earned the “HIGHLY COVETED ENDORSEMENT” of the Honorable Jacquie Baly over Judge Ursula Hall in the race for District Judge, 165th Judicial District Court in Harris County, Texas. Now before you ask, “what different does it make?” you had better get a better understanding of the “PARADIGM SHIFT” that’s taking place in Harris County, Texas right now. And before you buy into the notion that sending out more “ABSENTEE BALLOTS” is going to cause all of the “2020 DEMOCRATIC JUDICIAL NOMINEES” to win you had better do your homework. 

ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN IN HARRIS COUNTY, TEXAS IN 2020

Look, first off, we have a lot of folks running around Harris County, Texas who don’t know what the hell they are doing. I mean, some of the consultants who’ve been allowed to operate here for many, many years are straight trash. Sure, some talk a really good game – but that doesn’t mean that they know what the hell they’re talking about. So, if you are a Democrat running for a countywide office in Harris County, Texas on Tuesday, November 3, 2020 – DON’T SLEEP ON THESE REPUBLICANS!!! And if you’ve hired one of these worthless consultants whose telling you that your victory is a sure thing – FIRE YOUR CONSULTANT!!! Why? Well, for the first time ever, Democrats like Judge Ursula Hall will have to face their Republican challengers without the 70,367 straight-ticket vote advantage they enjoyed back on Tuesday, November 8,, 2016, in the last presidential election. That being said, you have to remember that back in 2016, some down-ballot candidates like Judge Ursula Hall barely won their races. In fact, Judge Ursula Hall won her races by one of the slimmest margin of victories – when compared to her fellow Democrats who were running county wide. As a refresher, Judge Ursula Hall, the Democrat found herself trailing her Republican rival, former Judge Debra Ibarra Mayfield in the “ABSENTEE BALLOT” category. Get this, Judge Ursula Hall, only received 46,481 absentee ballot votes, while Judge Mayfield received 47,581 absentee ballot votes back in 2016. However, during the “EARLY VOTING” phase Judge Ursula Hall over took former Judge Debra Ibarra Mayfield after trailing in the “ABSENTEE BALLOT” category and never relinquished her lead. But, get this, after all of the votes were tallied, Judge Ursula Hall, after receiving a 70,367 straight-ticket vote advantage only beat former Judge Debra Ibarra Mayfield by 25,504 votes. Yes, you heard me right, former Judge Debra Ibarra Mayfield made up a 44,863 vote differential to only lose to Judge Ursula Hall by 25,504 votes. So, for those of you who don’t remember, the final results showed, Judge Ursula Hall with, 647,172, for 51.01% of the vote. And her Republican rival, former Judge Debra Ibarra Mayfield finished with, 621,668 votes, for 48.99% of the vote. But a win is a win – right? Not so fast, get this, a total of 1,268,840 votes were cast in the race for District Judge, 165th Judicial Court back in 2016. However, do you know that back on Tuesday, November 8, 2016, there were 2,182,980 Harris County citizens who were registered to vote? Why is this significant? Well, it’s significant because 914,140 registered voters stayed at home and did not vote. And hold your horses -- I’m not finished! Did you know that 65,925 undervotes were recorded in the race for District Judge, 165th Judicial District Court back in 2016? Why is this significant? Well, it’s significant, because there were more than enough votes on the table for the Republican to defeat Judge Ursula Hall; but because the Republicans didn’t make a real play for votes beyond their base, they came up short in every countywide race. So, can veteran attorney Bruce Bain unseat Judge Ursula Hall in the race for District Judge, 165th Judicial District Court on Tuesday, November 3, 2020, in Harris County? The answer to this question is a resounding YES -- if the Harris County Republican Party gets their act together!!! And without straight-ticket voting being an option, he and his fellow Republicans (running countywide) have a better shot than they’ve had in the past two major election cycles.
