Mail-in Ballots May Have Already Decided the District B Runoff Race Between Tarsha Jackson and Cynthia K. Bailey


State Rep. Senfronia Thompson has made a donation to both candidates running in the Houston City Council District B runoff election scheduled to be held on Saturday, December 12, 2020. Her constituent in the Houston District B runoff race is Tarsha Jackson, not Cynthia K. Bailey. In case you don't know, from what I can see, Tarsha Jackson is the candidate running in the runoff race for Houston City Council District B who is a constituent of State Rep. Senfronia Thompson, who represents House District 141, in the Texas legislature. So, please be informed that Cynthia K. Bailey is a constituent of State Rep. Harold Dutton, who is the House District 142 representative. In other news, it has become evidently clear that the Houston City Council District B runoff race is going to be decided by "ABSENTEE BALLOT" voters. Get this, through four days of early voting, only 850 in-person votes have been cast. These 850 in-person votes are split between (6) six Houston-area runoff races. And after not receiving any "ABSENTEE BALLOTS" back over the course of the first two days of early voting, a combined total of 2,913, of the 12,916, absentee ballots that have been mailed out, have now found their way back to the Election Administrators Office. It's unfortunate, but the race for Houston City Council District B, between Tarsha Jackson and Cynthia K. Bailey, may already be over if you ask me. And just in case you're wondering, back in 2019, Tarsha Jackson beat Cynthia K. Bailey by a two-to-one margin in the "ABSENTEE BALLOT" category when they faced off in the general election that was held back on Tuesday, November 5, 2019, but that field was comprised of (14) fourteen candidates. As a refresher, Tarsha Jackson received 499 of her overall 3,322 votes by way of "ABSENTEE BALLOT" votes. And comparatively speaking, Cynthia K. Bailey received 203 of her overall 2,302 votes by way of "ABSENTEE BALLOT" votes. 

State Rep. Senfronia Thompson Believes Cynthia K. Bailey and Tarsha Jackson Will Make Fine Council Members

AUBREY R. TAYLOR REPORTS© 

As I was driving home two nights ago I got a call from one of my colleagues who is a very respected public relations expert by the name of Marina Coryat. In the conversation, she informed me that State Rep. Senfronia Thompson (House District 141) hadn't endorsed either candidate in the ongoing runoff election for Houston City Council District B. I was also asked respectfully to remove State Rep. Senfronia Thompson's photo from blog posts and the runoff election newspaper that had already been published. After a lengthy conversation with District B runoff candidate Cynthia K. Bailey, I have done so. To this end, I can totally understand both points of view and would like to take this time to implore all candidates running for public office to get every endorsement in writing. I would also like to strongly encourage all candidates who are running for public office to have any person endorsing your candidacy to send you an endorsement statement by email. And I would also like to inform all candidates who will be running for office in 2022 to not mistake a phone call coupled with a donation from any elected official or donor as an endorsement. In a recently released statement by State Rep. Senfronia Thompson, she said, "It has come to my attention that there are rumors that I have endorsed a candidate for the District B City Council seat. I have not. Both Cynthia K. Bailey and Tarsha Jackson are my constituents and will make fine council members." She went on to say, "At this time, I have chosen to NOT endorse either of the candidates." Now, after looking into this matter for myself and talking with several people close to this matter. The whole thing is unfortunate and a big understanding if you ask me. But I am going to leave that right there. But like I said, all candidates running for office needs to make sure that you get every endorsement in writing because as elections heat up, lines can get a little blurry sometimes. Anyways, from what I can see, Tarsha Jackson is the candidate running in the runoff race for Houston City Council District B who is a constituent of State Rep. Senfronia Thompson, who represents House District 141, in the Texas legislature. To be clear, Cynthia K. Bailey is a constituent of State Rep. Harold Dutton, who is the House District 142 representative.

MEET CYNTHIA K. BAILEY 


Cynthia Bailey was born and raised in the historic Settegast neighborhood in Houston, TX. She has dedicated her life to serving her son and the people of District B. 

Cynthia’s passion for serving her community began in 1996 when she established Impacting Houston, Inc. (formerly Sure Thing, Inc.) a nonprofit organization geared towards redeveloping and empowering disadvantaged youth. She is affectionately known as “Miss Bailey” by the thousands of children she has mentored over the past 20 years through her organization. The community-based organization provides leadership training programs, after school activities, educational field trips, exposure to cultural events, and team building activities for children and teens while also providing several workshops and programs for adults. 

For years, Cynthia has been an active voice in the community and has collaborated with Houston leadership on several community issues including campaigns to fight flooding, ensure the appropriate use of Rebuild Houston funds, elimination of Red Light cameras and HISD school funding bonds. She currently leads the District B HOT Team which is responsible for trash and debris clean-up left by illegal dumping. Under her leadership, illegal dumping has decreased by 20% since 2017. 

Cynthia’s work and life experiences motivates her to fight for better opportunities for youth and adults throughout District B. Cynthia believes we must heal our entire community in order to provide real opportunities for the citizens of District B. 

She is committed to solving neighborhood issues while creating job opportunities. Cynthia understands the need to work with the public and private industry to attract and retain business. She will work with the City of Houston Economic Development team to advocate for better incentives programs and greater access to economic opportunities for the residents of District B. 

Cynthia understands that we must work together to solve neighborhood issues. We must provide basic services focused on neighborhood beautification. She will fight for reliable transportation, effective drainage systems and dependable infrastructure to increase quality of life for all District B residents. 

Cynthia is an active member in several civic and political organizations including the Settegast Neighborhood Association, Northeast Houston Democrats, New Progressive Civic Club and Houston Black American Democrats. 

When not working to solve neighborhood issues, Cynthia enjoys fishing, traveling and outdoors sports activities. She is also an active member of St. John’s Downtown.


Cynthia Bailey worked hard to earn her second-place finish in the race for Houston City Council District B, on Tuesday, November 5, 2019. In case you don’t know, Cynthia K. Bailey is the right choice on Saturday, December 12, 2020, in the runoff race for Houston City Council District B in my opinion.


Former City of Houston Police Chief C.O. Bradford and Many Other Honorable People Have Endorsed Cynthia K. Bailey Over Tarsha Jackson in the Runoff Election for District B

You don't normally see former Houston Police Chief C.O. Bradford handing out endorsements. So, that makes the fact that he's formally endorsed Cynthia K. Bailey over Tarsha Jackson as the "BEST CHOICE" that much more special. In my opinion, the fact that Cynthia K. Bailey has earned the coveted endorsement of former Police Chief and Councilman C.O. Bradford should say all any open-minded District B voter needs to know.

Local Businessman Eric Carr and Many Other Business Leaders Have Endorsed Cynthia K. Bailey in the Runoff Election for District B

AUBREY R. TAYLOR REPORTS©  

I was overjoyed to discover that former professional boxer Eric Carr had endorsed Cynthia K. Bailey over Tarsha Jackson in the runoff race for Houston City Council District B. It is always a good thing to discover business people who aren't afraid to flex political muscle. I've been telling folks for the last year or so, that Cynthia K. Bailey is a redeemed businesswoman who is one of the best in her industry. And the fact that businessmen like Eric Carr are standing with her is proof positive that Cynthia is the right choice. In case for some reason, you don't know, before entering the business world Carr was a heavyweight professional boxer. So, I'm sure he knows a winner when he sees one. Get this, as an amateur prizefighter, Carr racked up 56 wins with only 6 losses. And along the way spared with the likes of Tommy "Hit Man" Hearns, the former WBC Continental Middleweight Champion Kid Fire Parks, and 1984 Olympic medal winner Frank Tate, who went on to win a World Middleweight Championship.

Pastor Rudy and Juanita Rasmus have endorsed Cynthia K. Bailey Over Tarsha Jackson in the Race for Houston City Council District B

AUBREY R. TAYLOR REPORTS© 

Like the shirts say, Houston City Council District B residents should vote like their lives depends on it! I was overjoyed when I saw that Pastor Rudy and first lady Juanita Rasmus were throwing their support behind Cynthia K. Bailey in the December 12, 2020, runoff election. That being said, the turnout must get better going forward. Why? Well, on Wednesday, November 25, 2020, the first day of early voting, only 238 people turned out to vote. And that number is split between (6) six runoff races for the Houston area. We have the runoff Houston City Council District B between Cynthia K. Bailey and Tarsha Jackson. We have the runoff for Baytown City Council Member for District 5 between Thomas Parent and Jacob Powell. We have the runoff for Baytown City Council Member for District 6 between Mike Lester and Susan Cummings. We have the runoff for Humble City Council Member for Place 4 between Arliss Ann Bentley and Paula Settle. We have the runoff race for La Port Council Person for District 6 between Gary Rohr and Robbie McLarrin. And last but not least we have the runoff race for the City of Nassau Bay Mayor between Bob Warters and Ashley Graves. That being said, when you factor in all of these runoff races, the runoff for Houston City Council District B, more than likely didn't have but about 74 votes or so cast on the first day.

THE BRAINS

I’m the President/CEO of Aubrey R. Taylor Communications, the publisher of Houston Business Connections Newspaper©. In case you don’t know, I have 30-years of experience in marketing, branding, investigative reporting, public relations, opposition research, and political consulting. I’ve assisted in branding Republican and Democratic candidates in statewide elections and local municipalities throughout the State of Texas. Over the years, I’ve also assisted in branding and marketing (through my various publications) such corporations and institutions as Shell Oil, The City of Houston, Texas A&M University, Texas Southern University, Prairie View A&M University, Chevron, Waste Management, Nationwide Insurance, Momentum Jaguar/BMW, Channel 11, Channel 13, State Farm Insurance, and Allstate Insurance to name a few. 

EXPERIENCED REPORTER

I would have you to know that not everyone who has been accused of a crime or enters a guilty plea in connection with a crime is guilty of the crime they're accused of committing. Neither is everyone who goes to trial to fight charges that are leveled against them and get's convicted are guilty. Look, over the years, some very bad things have happened to people of color in our criminal justice system. So to this end, please understand, that during my career, I’ve gone into the Harris County Jail and Texas prisons on numerous occasions (on secret assignments) working in conjunction with the owner of one of the largest locally owned private security, and investigations firms. The man who was funding my investigations back then (who mysteriously died) also was the godfather of one of my sons, and the backer of one of my publications. That being said, I can straight-faced assure you that I’ve seen some of the injustices that are occurring in the Texas penal system up close and personal. While on the inside, I interviewed (face-to-face) some of the hardest criminals you can imagine for my research. I also discovered first-hand that many of the people who should be locked up are walking around free, and not all of those who are locked behind bars are guilty of the crimes that they, in some cases pleaded guilty to – for whatever reason. So, let me assure you that I know a criminal when I see one. And we have a handful of local elected officials who are straight-criminals and must be stopped!!!

PEOPLE OVER POLITICS

Based on my direct observations over the years, I can attest to the fact that our current criminal justice system is more about “HAVE’S AND HAVE NOT’S” to a greater degree than most people realize.  That being said, sure, in some cases, the skin color of the person being accused of a crime plays a role in who gets indicted and eventually convicted of crimes and those who go free. However, at the end of the day, from observing the system from the inside, and out; having money, good legal representation, and access to influential people are unfortunately key determining factors when it comes to who will spend the rest of their life walking around with an “X” on their back and who doesn’t. So, to this end, we must endeavor to change our criminal justice system and political landscape by “TAKING POLITICS OUT” of the way our judges are selected in the Lone Star State – that’s very important to me!
