AUBREY R. TAYLOR REPORTS©

I’m thankful to God for His goodness, mercy, and grace today! In case you don’t know, I wasn’t born into the greatest of situations.

As I look back over the last election season, it pleases me greatly to inform you that my “2022 MIDTERM ENDORSEMENT CARD” outperformed every other non-partisan card in the entire state of Texas. And just for the record, three out of the four awesome “GOP JUDICIAL CANDIDATES” who won their races in Harris County, Texas were all endorsed on my “2022 MIDTERM ENDORSEMENT CARD” on Tuesday, November 8, 2022, in Harris County, Texas.

PRESSING FORWARD

As I prepare to press forward into the “2024 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION CYCLE” I would like to inform everyone that my courage is unwavering. And just so you know, my commitment to “PUTTING PEOPLE OVER POLITICS” has grown stronger, and more tenacious. That being said, “MY WAR ON CORRUPTION” in Harris County, Texas will continue, as God’s plan for my life continues to unfold.

"GAME-CHANGER."


Judge Sandra Peake (Democrat), was a bonified, seasoned attorney before she ever ran for a judicial position. That being said, she also ran for local judicial positions several times before winning. If you ask me, Judge Sandra J. Peake is the embodiment of what it means never give up. And on Tuesday, November 8, 2022, I am proud to say that I endorsed Judge Sandra Peake, as I've always done, and she won her bid for re-election, over Leonel Leo Farias, II, by a wide margin. Comparatively speaking, Judge Sandra received 548,215 votes, for 51.90% of the vote, and her opponent, Leonel Leo Farias II, only received 507,991 votes, for 48.10% of the vote.

"GAME-CHANGER."


Paula Goodhart (Republican), was endorsed by me over Judge Ronnisha Bowman (Democrat), in the race for Judge, County Criminal Court at Law No. 2, in Harris County, Texas, and she emerged victorious by a slim margin of 4,889 votes with 1,058,707 votes cast in their race.

"GAME-CHANGER."


Leslie Johnson (Republican), was endorsed by me over Porscha Natasha Brown (Democrat), in the race for Judge, County Criminal Court at Law No. 3, in Harris County, Texas, and she emerged victorious by a very slim margin of 267 votes with 1,059,382 votes cast in their race.

"GAME-CHANGER."


Jessica N. Padilla (Republican), was endorsed by me over Je’Rell A. Rogers (Democrat), in the race for Judge, County Criminal Court at Law No. 14, in Harris County, Texas, and she emerged victorious by a slim margin of 14,290 votes with 1,053 votes cast in their race.
