Nyanza Davis Moore was the candidate we really liked in the race for United States Representative for District 22. However, she came up short of her goal of becoming the Democratic nominee. Sri Preston Kulkarni is the candidate who will represent the Democratic Party in the race for United States Representative for District 22 on Tuesday, November 3, 2020.




Judge Staci Williams was the candidate we really liked in the race for Texas Supreme Court, Place 7. Yes, she soundly defeated Brandy Voss in the race for Texas Supreme Court, Place 7 and will serve as the Democratic nominee on Tuesday, November 3, 2020. Judge Staci Williams will now have to face off against Justice Jeff Boyd on Tuesday, November 3, 2020.

Judge Fredericka Phillips is the candidate we really like in the race for Judge, 61st Civil District Court in Harris County, Texas coming up in the fall. She did not have a Democratic challenger back on Tuesday, March 3, 2020. However, she is being challenged by former Republican Judge Erin Elizabeth Lunceford, on Tuesday, November 3, 2020.




Attorney Jeralynn Manor is the candidate we really like in the race for Judge, 80th Civil District Court in Harris County, Texas coming up in the fall. Attorney Manor soundly defeated Judge Larry Weiman back on Tuesday, March 3, 2020. Now she must face off against Sharon Hemphill, a Republican on Tuesday, November 3, 2020.




Judge Kyle Carter is a judge who values our vote, prayers, and support. We really like Judge Kyle Carter the sitting judge for the 125th Civil District Court in Harris County, Texas. He did not have a Democratic challenger back on Tuesday, March 3, 2020. And no Republican chose to challenge him in the Tuesday, November 3, 2020, general election so he will retain his bench.




Judge R.K. Sandill is a judge who values our vote, prayers, and support. We really like Judge R.K. Sandill, the sitting judge for the 127th Civil District Court in Harris County, Texas. He did not have a Democratic challenger back on Tuesday, March 3, 2020. However, he is being challenged by Nile Copeland, a Republican on Tuesday, November 3, 2020.




Judge Mike Engelhart is a judge who values our vote, prayers, and support. We really like Judge Mike Engelhart, the sitting judge for the 151st Civil District Court in Harris County, Texas. He did not have a Democratic challenger back on Tuesday, March 3, 2020. And no Republican chose to challenge him in the Tuesday, November 3, 2020, general election so he will retain his bench.




Judge Alexandra Smoots-Thomas values our vote, prayers, and support. She was being challenged by Cheryl Elliott Thornton and Grant J. Harvey back on Tuesday, March 3, 2020. in the race for Judge 164th Civil District Court in Harris County, Texas. Judge Alexandra Smoots-Thomas finished second to our other client Cheryl Elliott-Thornton in the three-way race. Judge Smoots-Thomas and Thornton will now face off on Tuesday, May 26, 2020, in the Democratic Party Runoff Election showdown. The winner of the "RUNOFF SHOWDOWN" between Judge Alexandra Smoots Thomas and Cheryl Elliott Thornton will then have to face off against former Republican Judge Michael Landrum on Tuesday, November 3, 2020.





Attorney Cheryl Elliott Thornton values our vote, prayers, and support. She and Judge Alexandra Smoots-Thomas one of our clients as well, were both seeking the 164th Civil District Court bench back on Tuesday, March 3, 2020, in the Democratic Primary. Attorney Thornton has emerged as the clear front-runner heading into their Tuesday, May 26, 2020, Runoff Election showdown. The winner of the "RUNOFF SHOWDOWN" between Attorney Cheryl Elliott Thornton and Judge Alexandra Smoots Thomas will then have to face off against former Republican Judge Michael Landrum on Tuesday, November 3, 2020.



Judge Ursula Hall wasn't endorsed by the Houston Chronicle in her bid for re-election. However, she was endorsed by Houston Business Connections Newspaper© back on Tuesday, March 3, 2020, in the race for Judge, 165th Civil District Court. Judge Ursula Hall was being challenged by Megan Daic, who the Houston Chronicle endorsed, and Jimmie L. Brown Jr. back on March 3rd. However, it was Judge Ursula Hall who emerged the victor over her two Democratic challengers. She will now have to face Attorney Bruce Bain, a Republican on Tuesday, November 3, 2020.




Judge Nikita Harmon wasn't endorsed by the Houston Chronicle in her bid for re-election. However, she was endorsed by Houston Business Connections Newspaper© back on Tuesday, March 3, 2020, in the race for Judge, 176th Criminal District Court. Judge Harmon was being challenged by Bryan Acklin who the Houston Chronicle endorsed back on March 3rd. However, it was Judge Nikita V. Harmon who soundly defeated her lone Democratic challenger by almost fifty percentage points. She did not draw a Republican challenger and will retain her bench.




Judge Robert Johnson is a judge who values our vote, prayers, and support. We really like Judge Robert Johnson, the sitting judge for the 177th Criminal District Court in Harris County, Texas. He did get challenged by a Democrat, but her application was rejected by the Democratic Party. And no Republican chose to challenge him in the Tuesday, November 3, 2020, general election so he will retain his bench.




Attorney Dawn Rogers wasn't endorsed by the Houston Chronicle in her quest to take unseat Judge Steven Kirkland in the race for Judge, 334th Civil District Court. However, she was endorsed by Houston Business Connections Newspaper© back on Tuesday, March 3, 2020, in the race for Judge, 334th Civil District Court. She must now face off against Attorney Dan Lemkuill, a Republican on Tuesday, November 3, 2020, to claim this bench.




Attorney John A. Clark was the candidate we really liked in the race for Judge, 337th Criminal District Court. However, he came up short of his goal of becoming the Democratic nominee. In case you don't know, he finished as the runner-up in a group of four Democrats who were seeking the nomination. Colleen Gaido won the nomination outright. Since no Republican elected to run for this bench Attorney Colleen Gaido has won the bench.





Judge George Powell is a judge who values our vote, prayers, and support. He fought valiantly to hold onto his bench after being primaried. It's unfortunate that Judge Powell will not be able to continue his service to the people of Texas. However, Attorney Natalia "Nata" Cornelio, the Democratic nominee will now have to face off against Arlene Hecht, a Republican on Tuesday, November 3, 2020.




Judge Julia Maldonaldo wasn't endorsed by the Houston Chronicle in her bid for re-election. However, she was endorsed by Houston Business Connections Newspaper© back on Tuesday, March 3, 2020, in the race for Judge, 507th Family District Court. Judge Maldonaldo was being challenged by CC "Sonny" Phillips who the Houston Chronicle endorsed, and Robert S. Morales back on March 3rd. However, it was Judge Julia Maldonado who emerged the victor over her two Democratic challengers. She will now have to face off against former Republican Judge Alyssa Lemkuill on Tuesday, November 3, 2020.



Attorney Audia Jones would have made a great District Attorney for Harris County, Texas. It's a shame that her long-fought battle to become the first African American D.A. for Harris County, Texas came down two her splitting votes with another African American woman who jumped into the race at the last possible moment. Anyways, based on the Election Day results, it's very clear that Attorney Audia Jones was the only challenger to District Attorney Kim Ogg who had a legitimate chance at defeating her. With that being said, District Attorney Kim Ogg won the nomination outright, and will now have to faceoff against Attorney Mary Nan Huffman, her Republican challenger on Tuesday, November 3, 2020. Expect for Huffman to give District Attorney Kim Ogg all she can handle in the fall.




Judge Lesley Briones was endorsed by Houston Business Connections Newspaper© back on Tuesday, March 3, 2020, in the race for Judge, Harris County Civil District Court at Law #4. Judge Briones was being challenged by former Judge William "Bill" McLeod who was seeking to reclaim the bench he gave up after triggering his own resignation. The battle for the Harris County Civil District Court at Law #4 bench turned out to be not much of a battle at all, as our client Lesley Briones soundly defeated McLeod in every phase of the game. In the end, Judge Lesley Briones earned more than 73% of the vote against her Democratic rival. She will now face a much more difficult opponent by the name of Clyde Raymond Leuchtag. In case you don't know, Leuchtag is a former Republican judge and has a very strong cross-over appeal.




Judge Genesis Draper is a judge who values our vote, prayers, and support. We really like Judge Genesis Draper, the sitting judge for Harris County Criminal Court at Law #12. She did not have a Democratic challenger back on Tuesday, March 3, 2020. However, she is being challenged by former  Judge Linda Garcia, a Republican on Tuesday, November 3, 2020.




Former Felony Court Judge Maria T. Jackson took on Harris County Commissioner Rodney Ellis back on Tuesday, March 3, 2020, in what turned out to be a lopsided victory in favor of Commissioner Rodney Ellis. The numbers in this particular race make absolutely no sense and will be reviewed at a later date once the election results have been made official by the Harris County Clerk's Office. In the end, Commissioner Rodney Ellis soundly defeated Judge Jackson according to the unofficial numbers. Since no Republican chose to seek the Harris County Commissioner #1 position, Commissioner Rodney Ellis will retain the office.




Judge Joe Stephens is a judge who values our vote, prayers, and support. We really like Judge Joe Stephens, the sitting Justice of the Peace for Precinct 3, Place 1. He did not have a Democratic challenger back on Tuesday, March 3, 2020. And no Republican chose to challenge him in the Tuesday, November 3, 2020, general election so he will retain his bench.



Wanda Adams wasn't endorsed by the Houston Chronicle in the race for Harris County Justice of the Peace for Precinct 7, Place 1. But she was endorsed by Houston Business Connections Newspaper© back on Tuesday, March 3, 2020. She had a lot of folks working against her. And she had a lot of political ploys and party bosses trying to stop her from unseating Judge Jeremy Brown, but in the end, her name identification and ground-game strategy proved too much for him to handle.  According to the Unofficial Democratic Party Cumulative results, Wanda Adams soundly defeated Judge Jeremy Brown in every phase of the game. 




George Goffney is one of the best people you would ever want to know. He was the candidate we really liked in the race for Harris County Constable for Precinct 2. This race turned out to be lopsided in favor of the incumbent, Christopher "Chris" Diaz and Jerry Garcia, a Harris County Lieutenant. Speaking of Jerry Garcia, having the words "Harris County Lieutenant" by his name on the ballot gave him a decided advantage over the other candidates. So it's not surprising that he finished first in the balloting back on Tuesday, March 3, 2020. So, on Tuesday, May 26, 2020, Jerry Garcia, the Harris County Lieutenant, and Christopher "Chris" Diaz will face off in a runoff to decide who the Democratic nominee will be in this race. The winner of the Democratic Primary runoff will have to face off against Daniel Vela, the Republican on Tuesday, November 3, 2020.




Ken Jones was and still is, the candidate we really like in the race for Harris County Constable for Precinct 3. Ken Jones was endorsed by the Houston Business Connections Newspaper© "READER BOARD" back on Tuesday, March 3, 2020. Constable Sherman Eagleton nearly ran away with the victory without a runoff. However, he fell short of gaining a majority of the votes in this hotly contested race. While this race appeared to skewed in favor of the incumbent Constable Sherman Eagleton, expect to see Ken Jones close the gap, as he has already secured the endorsement of several of the other "DULY-QUALIFIED" fellow Democrats who were also seeking to unseat Constable Eagleton back on Tuesday, March 3, 2020. In case you don't know, the "RUNOFF ELECTION" for this race will take place on Tuesday, May 26, 2020.


 Judge Angela Graves-Harrington is not on the ballot in 2020. However, she is one of the people who make what we do possible.
