All three candidates endorsed by Cynthia M. Ginyard (left) chairwoman of the Fort Bend County Democratic Party in the Saturday, December 12th runoff election lost their runoff races. “And now, Cynthia and KP want to further disenfranchise Republican voters in our county by either discrediting or trying to remove our impartial election administrator,” says Linda Howell, (pictured above with Gov. Greg Abbott who will be running for re-election in the 2022 Midterm Election. In case you don’t know, Linda Howell is the chairwoman of the Fort Bend County Republican Party. However, she’s also a member of the Fort Bend County Elections Commission that will be meeting on Friday, December 18, 2020 at 1:00pm. Other members of the committee are County Judge KP George, Tax Assessor/Collector Carrie Surratt, County Clerk Laura Richard, and Fort Bend County Democratic Party Chairwoman Cynthia M. Ginyard. The purpose of the meeting will be to review and analyze the Fort Bend County 2020 Election Cycle and Administration and take appropriate actions. However, due to emergency conditions this meeting will be conducted by telephone and/or video conference.
All Three Cynthia M. Ginyard Endorsed Runoff Candidates Lost on December 12th, Signaling Fort Bend County Just Might be Ground Zero in the 2022 Midterms
AUBREY R. TAYLOR REPORTS©
In case you haven’t heard, back on November 30, 2020, Cynthia M. Ginyard, the chairwoman for the Fort Bend County Democratic Party issued endorsements for three candidates who were on the Saturday, December 12, 2020, non-partisan runoff election ballot. She endorsed, Mayor Yolanda Ford in the runoff race for Mayor of Missouri City, Texas. She endorsed Chris Preston in the runoff race for Missouri City -- City Council At-Large Position #2. And she also endorsed Arthur "AJ" Honoré in the runoff race for Mayor of Stafford, Texas. Unfortunately, not one of the candidates who received the endorsed of Cynthia M. Ginyard was able to win their runoff race in the low-voter turnout runoff election. So, just for the record, Mayor Yolanda Ford ended up only receiving 5,085 votes, in her losing bid for re-election against Robin Elackatt who received 5,622 votes in the runoff race for Mayor of Missouri City, Texas. Councilman Chris Preston ended up only receiving 4,259 votes, in his losing bid for re-election against Lynn Clouser who received a whopping 6,259 votes in the runoff race for Missouri City – City Council At-Large Position #2. And Arthur "AJ" Honoré ended up only receiving 981 votes, in his losing bid to become the Mayor of Stafford, Texas. What does this mean? Well, what this means is that having the right candidates on the ballot means a lot in low-voter-turnout elections. And with the 2021 Municipal Election on the horizon, and 2020 Midterm Elections coming into view, Fort Bend County could be in play if people like Linda Howell, chairwoman for the Fort Bend County Republican Party is also given the proverbial “GREEN LIGHT” to play ball.

Chairwoman Cynthia M. Ginyard Could Have Her Hands Full in the 2022 Midterm Elections in Fort Bend County, Texas
AUBREY R. TAYLOR REPORTS©
Make note mistake about it, Cynthia M. Ginyard, chairwoman of the Fort Bend County Democratic Party did a good job stacking her field in the last couple of election cycles. But in my opinion, she must win a few more election cycles for Fort Bend County, Texas to be declared reliably blue if you ask me. Why? Well, for starters, almost every countywide race in Fort Bend County fell within the threshold of the “UNDERVOTE COUNT” back on Tuesday, November 3, 2020. So, what this indicates to me is that Fort Bend County isn’t “DARK BLUE” at this time. Yes, Fort Bend County has a blue tint to it, but one election cycle can change that – especially if the turnout isn’t as robust as it ended up being back in 2018 and 2020. And another thing to make note of, is that in the 2022 Midterms, Governor Greg Abbott will be at the top of the ticket for the Republicans. So, that being said, Cynthia M. Ginyard’s job is going to be a lot more difficult because her strategy will be at the mercy of who Democrats nominate as their gubernatorial candidate to take on Governor Greg Abbott. If Democrats don’t elect a candidate who can rally their core base to turnout – especially their African American base, they could suffer a major setback at the polls in 2022. But don’t take my word for it, just look at how the first woman Mayor (Yolanda Ford) who happen to be African American received 14,983 votes back on Tuesday, November 3, 2020, in the general election. Then on Saturday, December 12, 2020, Mayor Yolanda Ford only had 5,085 voters show back up to the polls to support her. In case you aren’t good at math, 9,893 fewer voters turned back out to support Mayor Yolanda Ford in the runoff election – which is unacceptable. Especially when we are talking about a most of these being African Americans who simply decided to stay at home.

Linda Howell, the chairwoman of the Fort Bend County Republican Party will need to grow her party's core base over into Precinct 1, 2, and 4 in the run up to the 2022 Midterm Elections. By expanding the base of her party, she will give her 2022 Midterm Election candidates a better shot at appealing to crossover voters in predominantly minority areas of Fort Bend County through their own highly individualized targeted outreach efforts.
Linda Howell, the chairwoman of the Fort Bend County Republican Party must be given the ability to capitalize on her relationships and get the financing that she needs to brand her party as one of inclusion where all people are welcomed, and all votes are appreciated.
African American conservative women like Political Analyst Jacquie Baly must be fully embraced and afforded the opportunity to openly share their thoughts, concerns and opinions related to the best path forward for the Fort Bend County Republican Party heading into the 2022 Midterm Election cycle. Linda Howell, the chairwoman of the Fort Bend County Republican Party must also be given a budget earmarked to combat voter fraud by way of "ABSENTEE BALLOT HARVESTING" as players out of Harris County, Texas begin to migrate over into Fort Bend County.
Chairwoman Linda Howell Could Turn Fort Bend County, Texas Back Red in 2022 if Given the Support She Needs
AUBREY R. TAYLOR REPORTS©
It’s been a rough ride for Linda Howell, chairwoman for the Fort Bend County Republican Party – but she’s one of the smartest people I know. If you ask me, I think she’s the right woman for the job. However, to be successful in the 2022 Midterms she’s got to get the full support of her party firmly behind her. She’s also got to get the financial backing she needs. She has to diversify her field of candidates through recruitment of a field that’s diverse enough to attract swing-voters. And the people who are trying to get her to resign her position must stop and rally behind her – and give her their full support going into the 2022 Midterms. Why? Well, first off, a house divided can’t stand. So, for down-ballot Republicans to have any success at winning countywide in 2022, a potent ground-game strategy, with all-hands-on deck is needed. So, that being said, Fort Bend County isn’t “DARK BLUE” if you ask me. However, widespread local loses in the 2022 Midterms will be demoralizing to the party. And above that, it will signal that change is needed in leadership. However, in my honest assessment, Linda Howell, knows what she’s doing and is up to the challenge – but she will need steady her ship – rally her base – and diversify her field of candidates in the 2022 Midterms. But don’t take my word for it, just look at what just happened in Missouri City, Texas in the December 12th runoffs. Even though these were non-partisan races, I can clearly see how people like former Missouri City Mayor Allen Owen with his “TAKE OUR CITY BACK” campaign impacted local municipal races in ways that we haven’t seen in some time. But he didn’t do it alone, I’m willing to bet my bottom dollar that while Cynthia M. Ginyard, chairwoman of the Fort Bend Democratic Party was out their publicly endorsing Democratic candidates in races that were supposed to be non-partisan – Chairwoman Linda Howell was quietly working behind the scenes to ensure that the victories being sought by Robin Elackatt, Lynn Clouser, and Cecil Willis were realized back on Saturday, December 12, 2020, in the runoff election. Way to go Allen and Linda, I’m so proud of you guys.

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!
