Brian Middleton, the Fort Bend County District Attorney, is a Democrat. Still, he is beloved and respected by Democrats and Republicans because he stands for what's right and does not use his office to grind political axes or to go after political rivals. As evidence, the Fort Bend County Public Integrity Division, working with the Texas Rangers, has arrested Taral Patel, the Democratic nominee for Fort Bend County Precinct 3 Commissioner, on third-degree felony charges for "ONLINE IMPERSONATION" and a Class A Misdemeanor charge of Misrepresenting of identity under the Texas Election Code. However, the Texas Rangers executed search and arrest warrants for the investigations into Taral Patel, who is scheduled to appear on the Tuesday, November 5, 2024, Presidential Election ballot against Andy Meyers, the Republican nominee.
State Rep. Ron E. Reynolds (HD-27), a lifelong Democrat, has masterfully rebuilt his brand and restored his reputation as one of Fort Bend Harris County's most influential "BLACK ELECTED OFFICIALS." State Rep. Reynolds proved his influence on Saturday, May 28, 2024, when he played a pivotal role in helping Chairman-Elect Fred Taylor defeat Jennifer Cantu, endorsed by outgoing Fort Bend Democratic Party Chairman Cynthia M. Ginyard. Also pictured above is Mike Doyle (right), chairman of the Harris County Democratic Party.
State Rep. Ron E. Reynolds (Democrat), who already serves as chairman of the Texas Legislative Black Caucus, has been elected to serve as a "NATIONAL BOARD MEMBER" of the NAACP, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Rep. Reynolds's election to the NAACP National Board is a shining example of how redemption is possible for Black men who believe in themselves and trust God to deliver them through difficulties life may throw their way.
The Leaders Esteem Christian Bible University has already bestowed an "HONORARY DOCTORATE DEGREE" on State Rep. Senfronia Thompson (HD-141), who exemplifies the American ideal that one person can make a difference. State Rep. Thompson has also built a distinguished legacy on her vital principle of faith, her unwavering defense of freedom, and her life commitment to ensuring everyone is treated fairly. On Tuesday, September 10, 2024, State Rep. Ron Reynolds will receive an "HONORARY DOCTORATE DEGREE" from the Leaders Esteem Christian Bible University for his commitment to and dedication to "Social Justice," which is extremely important.

Fred Taylor is Living Proof that Every Vote Counts; State Rep. Ron Reynolds, Fred Taylor, and Mike Doyle Must Collaborate
AUBREY R. TAYLOR REPORTS©
On Monday, June 17, 2024, there’s going to be a “DEMOCRATIC PARTY MEETING” held at 6:30 p.m. at the (HCC) Houston Community College Campus, located at 1600 Texas Parkway in Missouri City, Texas 77489; however, before the “DEMOCRATIC PARTY MEETING” the Fort Bend County Democratic Party with host a “SWEARING-IN CEREMONY” at 5:00 p.m. for Frederick G. Taylor, at the exact location.
If you don’t believe every vote counts, ask Fred Taylor what he thinks about every vote counting. On Saturday, May 28, 2024, Fred Taylor trailed his Democratic opponent by the name of Jennifer Cantu for the entire night. However, at the night’s end, Taylor (no relation to me) emerged victorious to overtake his rival by 72 votes, becoming the new Fort Bend County votes.
In a true testament to the adage of every vote counting, Fred Taylor received 3,239 votes, for 50.56% of the vote, and Jennifer Cantu, endorsed by outgoing Fort Bend Democratic Party Chairman Cynthia M. Ginyard, ended up receiving 3,167 votes, for 49.44% -- talk about a razor-thin victory.
On the same night (Saturday, May 28, 2024) over in Harris County, Texas, in the race State Senate in the Harris County Democratic Party Primary runoff election for Senate District 15, between newly-elected state Senator Molly Cook and State Rep. Jarvis Johnson, the result was even closer than what we saw over in Fort Bend County between Taylor and Cantu in the hotly contested race for Chairman of the Fort Bend Democratic Party.
With all votes counted, state Senator Molly Cook has 9,506 votes, for 50.16% and state Rep. Jarvis Johnson has 9,444 votes, for 49.84%, for a razor-thin 62-vote margin of victory, in favor of Cook.
Talk about heartbreaking. If you think a 72-vote margin of victory is razor-thin. And if a 62-vote margin of victory is astonishing – what about the 44-vote margin?
Yes, there was a congressional runoff race on the Republican side of the aisle that spanned Fort Bend County and Harris County. A Nigerian-born immigrant named Kenneth Omoruyi came within 44 votes of defeating Caroline Kane, a white female.
Omoruyi, endorsed by Jim “MATTRESS MACK” McIngvale and other strong conservatives, beat Caroline Kane in the Fort Bend segment in the 7th Congressional District of Texas runoff race by a margin of 765 votes for Kenneth Omoruyi and 605 votes for Caroline Kane. However, when the race shifted to Harris County, Caroline Kane got the better of Omoruyi to win the nomination.
In the Harris County segment in the 7th Congressional District of Texas runoff race, Caroline Kane received 1,934 votes, and Kenneth Omoruyi received 1,730 votes.
Believe it or not, tight margins of victories should be expected in Harris County and Fort Bend when Republicans and Democrats face off in the presidential election on Tuesday, November 5, 2024. This could inevitably be the most consequential election of our lifetimes.
“FORT BEND COUNTY.”
Fort Bend County voters must finish unfinished business on Saturday, June 15, 2024, which is also the “JUNETEENTH HOLIDAY.”
The outgoing Fort Bend County Chairman (Cynthia M. Ginyard) and Fred Taylor, the in-coming Fort Bend County Chairman, played it safe and shied away from the low-voter turnout nonpartisan contests that are taking place in their area on Saturday, June 15, 2024.
Over in Fort Bend County, four “RUNOFF RACES” are taking place tomorrow (Saturday, June 15, 2024), which voters must decide.
RACE ONE - In the Wharton County Junior College race, Position 5, Jay Roussel and Mary Ellen Meyer are the two candidates facing a runoff in Fort Bend County, Texas, on Saturday, June 15, 2024.
RACE TWO - The runoff race for Mayor of the City of Fulshear between Joel M. Patterson and Don McCoy occurs in Fort Bend County, Texas, on Saturday, June 15, 2024.
RACE THREE - A runoff will occur in the City of Rosenberg for the Councilor, At-Large Position #1 seat between James Urbish and Richard Olson on Saturday, June 15, 2024.
RACE FOUR - In the City of Rosenburg runoff race, Councilor, At-Large Position #2, Susan Kroll Euton and Steve DeGregorio, will occur on Saturday, June 15, 2024.
“HARRIS COUNTY.”
I suppose anything is possible, but I’m not sure why Mike Doyle, the chairman of the Harris County Democratic Party, and party leaders didn’t stand down on the nonpartisan (HCAD) Harris County Appraisal District election from the very beginning.
The Republican-led legislature had a distinct advantage in these (HCAD) Board of Directors runoff races when the election, scheduled for the summer’s middle, was ordered.
Everybody and their momma know that Democrats aren’t going to turn out to vote for no election taking place on Saturday, June 15, 2024, which also is the “JUNETEENTH HOLIDAY,” when the largest voting bloc for Democrats (Black People), are in a celebratory mood, not thinking about going to vote.
Even still, Mike Doyle, the chairman of the Harris County Democratic Party, decided to make endorsements and is left with two of his endorsed candidates (Melissa Noriega and Pelumi Adeleke) facing two hungry conservatives by the name of Kyle Scott and Ericka McCrutcheon.
Anything is possible, but Melissa Noriega (Democrat) is likely going to be defeated by Kyle Scott (Republican) in the race for (HCAD) Harris Central Appraisal District Board of Directors, Place 2. And Pelumi Adeleke doesn’t stand a chance in the (HCAD) Harris Central Appraisal District Board of Directors, Place 3, against Ericka McCrutcheon, a local pastor and businesswoman.
“CLOSING THOUGHTS.”
Since Harris County and Fort Bend County are so close to one another, the new Fort Bend County Chairman (Fred Taylor) and Mike Doyle, the Harris County Chairman, must find a way to bounce ideas off one another once Fred Taylor’s inauguration is complete on Monday, June 15, 2024.
