Judge-Elect Erica Hughes Unseated Judge Natalie Fleming in the race for Judge, County Criminal Court at Law No.3 in the 2018 Midterms

JUDGE-ELECT ERICA HUGHES UNSEATED JUDGE NATALIE C. FLEMING; STRAIGHT-TICKET VOTING WAS NOT A FACTOR IN HUGHES’ VICTORY

In case you don’t know, Judge-Elect Erica Hughes would have still defeated Judge Natalie C. Fleming in the race for Judge, County Criminal Court at Law No. 3 – even without the 104,698 straight-ticket voting cushion she received from Democratic voters in Harris County, Texas back on Tuesday, November 6, 2018, in the midterm election. Here’s why: Erica Hughes received 657,806 overall votes. When you subtract the 514,758 straight-ticket votes, you come up with 143,048 votes. Comparatively speaking, if you subtract the 410,060 straight-ticket votes, Judge Natalie C. Fleming received from her overall vote total of 520,843 you come up with 110,783 votes. So, in essence, even if you stripped away the straight-ticket votes received by Judge-Elect Erica Hughes and Judge Natalie C. Fleming, she would have still defeated Judge Fleming by approximately 32,265 votes back on Tuesday, November 6, 2018, in the midterm election in my opinion.

AUBREY R. TAYLOR: Why should voters in Harris County, Texas cast their ballot for you over your opponent on Tuesday, November 6, 2018, in the Midterm Election?

JUDGE NATALIE C. FLEMING: “I have been practicing in the Harris County Criminal Courts for almost 30 years – first as a prosecutor with the Harris County District Attorney’s Office and later as a visiting judge and as the Presiding Judge of Harris County Criminal Court at Law Number 3 since 2010. I started the first Spanish-speaking S.O.B.E.R. Court which is an intense program designed to reduce repeat D.W.I. offenses by breaking the cycle of addiction among members of our community. As a felony prosecutor, I gained valuable experience handling serious and complicated cases on behalf of the citizens of Harris County. As a Judge, I have presided over many thousands of cases and I work hard to ensure the rights of all involved are protected. I am very honored to have had this great responsibility placed upon me by the voters of Harris County in my last two elections.

In contrast, my opponent – while seemingly a very nice lady – does not have the experience necessary to preside over this court. A simple search of the court database online shows that she has never, ever handled a case in the Harris County Criminal Courts at Law. Not one.”

ARE YOU HOPING FOR A BLUE WAVE OR RED STORM ON NOVEMBER 6TH?

"Whether you’re a Democrat hoping for a “BLUE WAVE” to flow through Harris County, Texas, or a “REPUBLICAN” looking for a “RED STORM” to blow through town you had better not take any vote for granted in the Tuesday, November 6, 2018, Midterm Election whereas Harris County, Texas is concerned. And with that said, I am imploring all of my loyal readers to tell all of their family, friends, associates, and passers-by about the importance of every vote in what I’m expecting to be one of the most important elections of our lifetime. And please don’t forget that early voting will begin on Monday, October 22, 2018, and end on Friday, November 2, 2018. And finally, to avoid the long lines on Election Day, you are strongly encouraged to vote early at one of the (46) forty-six "EARLY VOTING LOCATIONS" conveniently located throughout Harris County, Texas."

Erica Hughes and Natalie C. Fleming will face off on November 6, 2018 in the race for Judge, County Criminal Court at Law No.3

Meet Captain Erica Hughes the record-setting Democratic candidate running for Harris County Criminal Court at Law No. 3 on Tuesday, November 6, 2018. Captain Hughes entered the U.S. Army as a First Lieutenant as a Direct Commission in the Judge Advocate General Corps. However, she is now a Captain in the U.S. Army National Guard where she’s assigned to a unit based in Houston, Texas. In case you don't know, Captain Erica Hughes received 131,686 votes back on Tuesday, March 6, 2018, in the Harris County Democratic Party Primary. To put her historic feat into perspective, no other Democratic or Republican candidate (man or woman) of any ethnicity has ever garnered a vote total that high in an "UNCONTESTED" race for a Harris County Criminal Court at Law bench during a Midterm Primary Election cycle. So, as Captain Erica Hughes and her fellow Democrat soldiers prepare for battle on Tuesday, November 6, 2018, Houston Business Connection Newspaper© would like to take this moment to congratulate her for her historic achievement.

The battle for Judge, County Criminal Court at Law No. 3 between Attorney Erica Hughes and Judge Natalie C. Fleming Will Take Place on Tuesday, November 6, 2018, in Harris County, Texas

ANALYSIS BY AUBREY R. TAYLOR

A lot of folks don't know this, but back on Tuesday, March 6, 2018, in the Harris County Democratic Party Primary, Captain Erica Hughes received more votes than any other “DEMOCRATIC PARTY PRIMARY” or “REPUBLICAN PARTY PRIMARY” candidate running “CONTESTED OR UNCONTESTED” for a Harris County Criminal Court at Law bench in the history of Harris County Midterm Primary Elections. As publisher of Houston Business Connections Newspaper©, I can assure you that we’ve looked at all of the data that we’ve been able to find dating back to the 1980’s and have not been able to find one person, from either major political party in Harris County who has garnered more votes than this rising Democrat political star. So, to put things into perspective as it pertains to Captain Erica Hughes' historic accomplishment here's a look back at the range of votes “UNCONTESTED” Republican Party Primary and “UNCONTESTED” Democratic Party Primary candidates received who was running for County Criminal Court at Law benches in the last few Midterm Election cycles.


2014 MIDTERM PRIMARY BY THE NUMBERS

Back in the Tuesday, March 4, 2014 Harris County Democratic Party Primary, key “UNCONTESTED” County Criminal Court at Law candidates only garnered votes in the 39,000 to 41,000 vote range – nothing close to the 131,686 votes received by Captain Erica Hughes in her historic showing back on Tuesday, March 6, 2018 in the Harris County Democratic Party Primary race for Judge, County Criminal Court at Law No.3. Comparatively speaking, back in the Tuesday, March 4, 2014, Harris County Republican Party Primary, County Criminal Court at Law “UNCONTESTED” candidates only garnered votes in the 91,000 to 95,000 vote range.


2010 MIDTERM PRIMARY BY THE NUMBERS

Back in the Tuesday, March 2, 2010 Harris County Democratic Party Primary, key “UNCONTESTED” County Criminal Court at Law candidates only garnered votes in the 61,000 to 63,000 vote range – nothing close to the 131,686 votes garnered by Captain Erica Hughes in her historic showing back on Tuesday, March 6, 2018, in the Democratic Primary race for Judge, County Criminal Court at Law No.3. Comparatively speaking, back in the Tuesday, March 2, 2010, Harris County Republican Party Primary, key “UNCONTESTED” County Criminal Court at Law candidates only garnered votes in the 100,000 to 103,000 vote range.


2006 MIDTERM PRIMARY BY THE NUMBERS

Back in the Tuesday, March 7, 2006 Harris County Democratic Party Primary, key “UNCONTESTED” County Criminal Court at Law candidates only garnered votes in the 23,000 to 24,000 vote range – nothing close to the 131,686 votes garnered by Captain Erica Hughes in her historic showing back on Tuesday, March 6, 2018, in the Democratic Primary race for Judge, County Criminal Court at Law No.3. Comparatively speaking, back in the Tuesday, March 2, 2010, Republican Party Primary, key “UNCONTESTED” Republican County Criminal Court at Law candidates only garnered votes in the 51,000 to 52,000 vote range.


CAPTAIN HUGHES AND JUDGE FLEMING

Measuring the strength of a candidate in an “UNCONTESTED” primary race isn’t as easy as analyzing a race where there are two or more candidates campaigning against one another. However, don’t forget that “VOTERS” still go to the polls to cast ballots for “UNCONTESTED” candidates. For this reason, the candidacy of Captain Erica Hughes, a commissioned officer in the United States Army is very intriguing to me. She became a First Lieutenant as a Direct Commission in the Judge Advocate General Corps several years ago. For those who don’t know, a direct commission officer is a United States uniformed officer who received their commission without the typical prerequisites for achieving a commission, (such as a four-year service academy, a four-year or two-year college ROTC program, or one of the officer candidate school or officer training school programs, the latter OCS/OTS programs typically slightly over three months in length) according to information readily available online. Accomplished individuals like Captain Erica Hughes, who have special skills that are critical to sustaining military operations, supporting troops, health and scientific study are typically given direct commissions because of their leadership abilities or expertise in given areas of law, science, medicine, pharmacy, dentistry, nurse corps, intelligence, supply-logistics-transportation, engineering, public affairs, chaplain corps, oceanography, merchant marine affairs, and others areas of specialization.

CAPTAIN ERICA HUGHES 

CAPTAIN HUGHES IS FIGHTING FOR AMERICA

Fast forward to today, Captain Erica Hughes continues to serve the American people as a Captain in the U.S. Army National Guard where she’s assigned to a unit in Houston, Texas. As a service member, Captain Hughes is able to utilize her physical ability as a soldier and legal skillset as an attorney to protect and serve all Americans as she advocates for her clients to receive fair, unbiased blind-fold justice in the courtroom.

MEET JUDGE NATALIE C. FLEMING

According to her website, Judge Natalie C. Fleming is a first-generation Hispanic American born and raised in Houston. She is a graduate of St. Agnes Academy and received her undergraduate degree from the University of St. Thomas. She then went on and earned her law degree from South Texas College of Law in 1988.

Upon becoming licensed to practice law in 1989, Judge Fleming started her legal career working for Harris County District Attorney, John B. Holmes, Jr. as a prosecutor. As an Assistant District Attorney, Judge Fleming obtained experience in many areas, including felony, misdemeanor, and death row penalty appeals.

After over 5 years, Judge Fleming resigned as a prosecutor to stay home with her children and work part-time as a visiting judge throughout the then 15 County Criminal Courts, she continued this practice for 15 years. Also, during this time, Judge Fleming also gained experience as being an Ad Litem attorney in representing the interest of children throughout the several County Civil Courts.

In 2010, Judge Fleming was appointed by unanimous vote by the Harris County Commissioners’ Court to be Judge of Harris County Criminal Court at Law #3. Judge Fleming was then subsequently elected two times to that position.

Because Judge Fleming is fluent in Spanish, since 2010, she has volunteered tireless hours as the first Judge in Harris County to preside over a Spanish-speaking SOBER Court. The Harris County SOBER Court program helps rehabilitate intoxicated driving offenders to prevent recidivism. Judge Fleming has devoted herself, through this program to improve public safety for the citizens of Harris County.

Judge Fleming has been active in various charitable activities in her community and has been recognized by a number of these. Judge Fleming and her husband of almost 30 years, Michael P. Fleming are the proud parents of six children.

STRICTLY BY THE NUMBERS

Captain Erica Hughes, was the “TOP VOTE-GETTER” in a stellar field of highly-qualified, honorable and distinguished judges and attorneys seeking to earn nominations from their respective political parties back on Tuesday, March 6, 2018, in Harris County. Who will win this race? Well, for Captain Hughes to unseat Judge Natalie Fleming she will need to raise money and have a potent strategy. Captain Hughes won't be able to rely on straight-ticket Democrat voting alone. (But she's smart, so I'm sure that she already knows this.) However, even without a large number of donations in the coffers she's managed to maneuver her way into the "TOP VOTE-GETTER" position as it pertains to the entire group of Harris County Criminal Court at Law candidates heading into her Tuesday, November 6, 2018 “SHOWDOWN” with Judge Natalie C. Fleming. A LOOK BACK AT THE ABSENTEE BALLOTS: Erica Hughes received (18,711) absentee votes, and Natalie C. Fleming received (18,604) absentee votes – so Erica Hughes has demonstrated that she can beat Natalie C. Fleming in this category. A LOOK BACK AT THE EARLY VOTING NUMBERS: Erica Hughes received (55,159) early votes, and Natalie C. Fleming received (44,611) early votes – so Erica Hughes has also demonstrated that she can beat Fleming during the early voting period. A LOOK BACK AT THE ELECTION DAY VOTING NUMBERS: Erica Hughes received (57,816) Election Day votes, and Natalie C. Fleming received (49,508) Election Day votes. The ballots cast on Election Day for Erica Hughes also demonstrates that she can beat, or at the very least run a very competitive campaign against Fleming on Tuesday, November 6, 2018. However, that’s not all, you must keep in mind that 43,664 Republican Primary voters chose to either not cast a ballot for Judge Natalie C. Fleming, or simply skipped over her race for one reason or another. But relatively speaking, Captain Hughes had a fairly good number of “UNDERVOTES” in her race as well.


TALE OF THE TAPE

Based on her historic Harris County Democratic Party Primary showing alone, it is conceivable that Captain Erica Hughes could be considered the clear and decisive front-runner in the race for Harris County Criminal Court at Law No.3 on Tuesday, November 6, 2018. How can I say this? Well for starters, Hughes received (131,686) total votes back in the Tuesday, March 6, 2018, Democratic Party Primary for Harris County, Texas. By comparison, Judge Natalie C. Fleming, the Republican received (112,723) total votes back on Tuesday, March 6, 2018, Republican Party Primary for Harris County, Texas.


TOO CLOSE TO CALL

There are absolutely too many variables associated with the current political climate in America to say with full certainty what's going to happen on Tuesday, November 6, 2018, in the Midterm Elections. So, neither Captain Erica Hughes or Judge Natalie C. Fleming can be considered the clear front-runner at this time – so I will do a recap of the race for Harris County Criminal Court at Law No. 3 sometime before the start of early voting which begins on Monday, October 22, 2018, and ends on Friday, November 2, 2018.


2,249,591 REGISTERED VOTERS

The voter turnout wasn’t large enough for me to say with complete certainty what’s going to happen on Tuesday, November 6, 2018. But please keep in mind that according to the Harris County Clerk’s Office there are over 2,249,591 registered voters living in Harris County, Texas. With that number in mind, we only heard the voices of 167,982 Democrats, and 156,387 Republicans speak up back on Tuesday, March 6, 2018 – so who knows what’s going to happen when the big boys come to play?

FIGHTING FOR JUSTICE

MEET CAPTAIN ERICA HUGHES

Captain Erica Hughes is a Houston based attorney and Judge Advocate for the National Guard who has a desire to see that the Judicial System becomes fair and balanced for all. Captain Hughes joined the race for Harris County Criminal Court at Law No. 3, in part, because she has witnessed firsthand how some judges fall short of administering justice in an even-handed manner. In her opinion, some local judges seem to be closed-minded and display a disposition of prejudiced toward some defendants and attorneys alike – who enter their courtroom. There’s a distinct difference, in her opinion between individuals who enter the Harris County courtrooms with "LOW INCOME" and very little knowledge of their rights – and those who enter the same courtrooms with “HIGH-POWERED” attorneys and deep pocketbooks. Captain Hughes believes that fairness is more often than not, doled out to individuals based upon their financial status, connections, ethnicity, and other contributing factors that should not be coming into play whereas court matters are concerned. Captain Hughes also believes that the time has come for things to change in Harris County! Captain Hughes furthermore believes that “IMPARTIALITY” and an “UNFAIR JUSTICE SYSTEM" must become a thing of the past. Her passion and drive to become the presiding judge for Harris County Criminal Court at Law No. 3 is fueled by the inequality she’s seen playout as it relates to individuals with low income, no political ties, or no knowledge of the legal system.

Captain Hughes attended and graduated from Prairie View A&M University. And after obtaining her undergraduate degree she received a full scholarship to Texas Southern University’s Thurgood Marshall School of Law located at 3100 Cleburne Street in Houston, Texas.

FIGHTING FOR OUR FUTURE

CAPTAIN HUGHES CARES

Captain Hughes’s mother and father who was a non-commissioned officer in the United States Army, and a retired United States postal worker raised her into the woman she's become today. So, after achieving her “LIFELONG DREAM” of becoming a lawyer back in 2006, Captain Hughes has remained in Houston, Texas and has successfully practiced law in the bayou city.

OTHER "2018 CANDIDATES" IN TEXAS YOU SHOULD GET TO KNOW

Governor Greg Abbott is the incumbent Republican running for re-election in the Tuesday, November 6, 2018, Gubernatorial Election. Governor Abbott didn’t face much of a challenge from SECEDE Kilgore, or Barbara Krueger back on Tuesday, March 6, 2018, in the Republican Party Primary. In case you don’t remember, he rolled to victory with more than 90.42% of the vote statewide in Texas. Over, 1,400,647 Republican Party Primary voters went to the polls to cast ballots for Governor Abbott. However, you must keep in the back of your mind that Texas had more than 15,249,541 registered voters on the books and a population of more than 19,900,980 people above the legal age to vote back when the Republican Party Primary took place. So, while no Democrat has won a statewide race in Texas since the Tuesday, November 8, 1994, Gubernatorial Election when George W. Bush the Republican nominee unseated Governor Ann W. Richards, the Democrat nominee – every (REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE) and (DEMOCRAT CANDIDATE) must still run their race like they are trailing their opponent by double-digit percentage points.

Lupe Valdez is the 2018 Democrat nominee for Governor of Texas. Valdez won a tough runoff election over fellow Democrat Andrew White to earn the right to challenge Governor Greg Abbott in the Tuesday, November 6, 2018, Gubernatorial Election for the State of Texas. In case you don’t remember, Lupe Valdez finished first in a stellar field of Democrat Gubernatorial hopefuls including, James Jolly Clark, Cedrick Davis, Sr., Joe Mumbach, Adrian Oceguenda, Jeffrey Payne, Tom Wakely, Andrew White, and Grady Yarbrough back in the Tuesday, March 6, 2018, Democratic Primary. The total number of Democrat voters who cast ballots back in the Democratic Primary was 1,022,558 statewide. Comparatively speaking, 1,549,006 ballots were cast back in the Tuesday, March 6, 2018, Republican Primary according to numbers posted by the Texas Secretary of State. But keep in mind that Texas had more than 15,249,541 (yes, that's fifteen million) registered voters on the books and a population of more than 19,900,980 people above the legal age to vote at the time that the 2018 Democratic Primary Election took place. Those are staggering numbers considering only, a little over a million voters actually cast ballots (statewide) in the Democratic Primary back in March. So, relatively speaking, Tuesday, November 6, 2018, should be more about whether (THE DEMOCRATS) or (THE REPUBLICANS) will inspire more voters to go to the polls to cast a ballot -- rather than which party rules Texas.
