Democrats are Suing the state of Texas; Governor Abbott Has Moved the Runoffs from Tuesday, May 26th to Tuesday, July 14, 2020


"The Texas Democratic Party Chairman is suing the state of Texas to make vote-by-mail available to all Texans who fear their health and safety could be put at risk at the voting booth on Tuesday, July 14, 2020, in the Democratic and Republican primary runoffs in Texas."



Governor Abbott Has Set Tuesday, July 14, 2020, as the New Runoff Election Date for the Democratic and Republican Primaries...

This coronavirus is something serious...for sure! Yes, we should all be concerned about our safety. Yes, this pandemic should be taken seriously by all Americans. So, to this end, I am in total agreement with Governor Greg Abbott pushing the election back from Tuesday, May 26, 2020, to Tuesday, July 14, 2020. In my opinion, this at least gives us a little more time to address the concerns people have about their safety in the midst of these troubling times. However, I also want you guys to know those darn "MAIL BALLOTS" are the easiest way for rogue candidates and criminal enterprises (experienced at mail-ballot harvesting) to steal elections and remain in power or seize the power they are seeking. In fact, I recently ran across an article published by the National Election Defense Coalition that stated, "Many popular vote-by-mail and absentee systems are ripe for fraud and abuse." I can't say that I disagree! In fact, the article went on to state that a lack of transparency, lack of security, opportunities for voter intimidation, and high levels of ballot mishandling are some of the reasons to limit these voting systems to serve only those who absolutely require them. A quote by the New York Times kinda sums it up best, "Votes cast by mail are less likely to be counted, more likely to be compromised and more likely to be contested than those cast in a voting booth, statistics show," the quote stated. So, I don't know at this time, whether we want to have more folks casting their ballot by absentee ballot. Besides, in Harris County, Republicans have a much stronger "ABSENTEE BALLOT GAME" than the Democrats do. I know that the major reason Democrats filed the lawsuit was for safety reasons, but Democratic Party Chairman Gilberto Hinojosa and other elected officials calling for "EXPANDED ABSENTEE-BALLOT" voting had better be careful in my opinion. Why? For one reason, Tuesday, November 4, 2008, was a very good day for Democrats here in Harris County, Texas. However, when the "DEMOCRATIC TICKET" featuring Barack Obama/Joe Biden faced off against the "REPUBLICAN TICKET" featuring John McCain/Sarah Palin in the "ABSENTEE BALLOT PHASE OF THE GAME" it was the Republicans who won that phase in Harris County, Texas. Hey, the number don't lie, John McCain/Sarah Palin (the Republicans) received 41,986 votes by "ABSENTEE BALLOT" back in 2008. Comparatively speaking, Barack Obama/Joe Biden (the Democrats) only received 24,503 votes by "ABSENTEE BALLOT" back in 2008. Since then, Democrats have gotten a lot better at the "ABSENTEE BALLOT GAME" in Harris County, Texas. But without straight-ticket voting being an option this coming November, Democrats must be careful to not be asking for something to be instituted for the Tuesday, July 14, 2020, runoff elections that could come back to bite them on Tuesday, November 3, 2020, in the general election. Houston Business Connections Newspaper© is published by Aubrey R Taylor Communications.

Constable Sherman Eagleton is heading into the Tuesday, July 14, 2020, runoff election in the race for Harris County Constable Precinct 3 as the "FRONT-RUNNER" against former Harris County Precinct 3 Commissioner Ken Jones. In case you don't know, Constable Sherman Eagleton received 10,008 votes back on Tuesday, March 3, 2020, in the Democratic Primary, according to the "Unofficial" election returns published by the Harris County Clerk.


Former Constable Ken Jones is heading into the Tuesday, May 26, 2020, runoff election in the race for Harris County Constable Precinct 3 as the "RUNNER-UP" against Constable Sherman Eagleton. In case you don't know, Ken Jones received 3,391 votes back on Tuesday, March 3, 2020, in the Democratic Primary, according to the "Unofficial" election returns published by the Harris County Clerk. However, in a recent turn of events, Eric Reed, Deborah Florus, and Michel (Poppy) Pappillion have all decided to throw their support behind Ken Jones. This could make the runoff showdown between Constable Sherman Eagleton and former Precinct 3 Constable Ken Jones one of the most intriguing races on the entire May 26th Democratic runoff ballot. Why? Well, at first glance it would appear that Constable Sherman Eagleton is the clear, and decisive "FRONT-RUNNER" heading into the runoff showdown. However, when you take into account that Eric Reed received 1,810 votes for 8.58% of the vote; Deborah Florus received 3,279 votes for 15.54% of the vote; Michael (Poppy) Pappillion received 913 votes for 4.33% of the vote, and Ken Jones himself received 3,391 votes for 16.07% of the vote, it isn't difficult to see that the "RUNOFF SHOWDOWN" between Constable Eagleton and Ken Jones won't be as lopsided as their Democratic Primary was back on Tuesday, March 3, 2020. Another key factor to pay close attention to is the fact that only 23,896 votes were cast back on Tuesday, March 3, 2020, in the race for Harris County Constable for Precinct 3. Why is this significant? Well, according to the Harris County Clerk's Office, there are 197,063 registered voters in Precinct 3 who could potentially turn out on Tuesday, May 26, 2020. So both Constable Sherman Eagleton (the current Constable for Precinct 3) and Ken Jones (the former Constable for Precinct 3) will both have their work cut out for them between now and the start of the "EARLY VOTING PERIOD" which begins on Monday, May 18, 2020, and Friday, May 22, 2020, in Harris County, Texas.
