Judge Brittanye Morris is the Reason Proposition #4 was Placed on the Tuesday, November 2, 2021, General Election Ballot


AUBREY R. TAYLOR: "Let me hip you to the game! Do you see that cool cat pictured above beside that beautiful young sister? Well, that dude is one of the most successful lawyers on the planet and his name is Attorney Tony Buzbee. Now, Buzbee is a shark in the courtroom. But what some folks might not know about this dude is that Attorney Tony Buzbee actually did more to help Black female judges get elected back during the 2018 Midterm Election and the 2020 Presidential Election than so-called Black leaders like Harris County Commissioner Rodney Ellis. How can I say this? Well, I can show you, better than I can tell you. But before I get there, I want you to know that Judge Brittanye Morris, and other young judges like her, are the reason why the Texas Constitution is about to get amended when "PROPOSITION #4" is passed on Tuesday, November 2, 2021. Now, that being said, Blacks should be outraged that 87% of the Harris County Democratic State Delegation is encouraging Democratic voters to cast their vote for an amendment to the Texas Constitution that has been created to keep young Black judges like Judge Brittanye Morris off the bench. Do you remember this?

Judge Brittanye Morris is the Reason Proposition #4 was Placed on the Tuesday, November 2, 2021, General Election Ballot 

AUBREY R. TAYLOR REPORTS©

For all of you who don't know, back on Wednesday, August 22, 2018, Attorney Tony Buzbee gave the Harris County Democratic Party $90,000.00 dollars, that was split into two payments. One of the payments given to the Harris County Democratic Party was for the amount of $80,000.00 dollars, and the second payment was for the amount of $10,000.00 dollars. Now, both checks were given to the Harris County Democratic Party on Wednesday, August 22, 2018. And if that wasn't enough, Attorney Tony Buzbee turned around during the 2020 Presidential Election cycle and donated a whopping $30,000.00 dollars to Brittanye Morris's campaign back on Wednesday, October 14, 2020, after she had defeated Judge Daryl Moore, in the Harris County Democratic Party nomination in the race for District Judge, for the 333rd Civil District Court. Now, what you have to understand today, is that a lot of folks from both major political parties are very concerned about the number of judges who are taking the bench and have no trial experience. Thus, "PROPOSITION #4" is the amendment that's being proposed to rectify this problem. 

Proposition Number 4

SJR 47 proposes a constitutional amendment changing certain eligibility requirements for a justice of the Supreme Court, a judge of the Court of Criminal Appeals, a justice of a court of appeals, and a district judge. The proposed amendment provides that a person is eligible to serve on the Supreme Court if the person, among other qualifications, is licensed to practice law in Texas; is a resident of Texas at the time of election; has been either a practicing lawyer licensed in Texas for at least ten years or a practicing lawyer licensed in Texas and a judge of a state court or county court established by the legislature for a combined total of at least ten years; and during that time has not had the person’s license to practice law revoked, suspended, or subject to a probated suspension. The same eligibility requirements would apply to a judge of the Court of Criminal Appeals and to a justice of a court of appeals. The proposed amendment further provides that to be eligible for appointment or election as a district judge, a person must be a resident of Texas; be licensed to practice law in Texas; and have been a practicing lawyer or a judge of a court in Texas, or both combined, for eight years preceding the person’s election, during which time the person’s license to practice law has not been revoked, suspended, or subject to a probated suspension.

The proposed amendment will appear on the ballot as follows: “The constitutional amendment changing the eligibility requirements for a justice of the supreme court, a judge of the court of criminal appeals, a justice of a court of appeals, and a district judge.”



AUBREY R. TAYLOR: "As you can see in the image above, 87% the 18-member Harris County Democratic Delegation is encouraging Democratic voters in Texas to cast their vote "FOR" this proposition that will change the eligibility requirements for judge to run for office. Why "PROPOSITION #4" being put to a vote on Tuesday, November 2, 2021, in Texas? (CLICK HERE) to check out, "Democratic male judges may be headed for extinction in Texas. The cause? Voters," that was published in the Texas Tribune back on Monday, March 9, 2020. (CLICK HERE) to check out, "Three Local Gay Judges Lost their Elections" that was published in OutSmart Magazine back on Tuesday, March 10, 2020. What's the problem? Well, to be brutally honest, a lot of folks from within both major political parties are upset about the success that young African American woman are enjoying these days. And many folks certainly don't want to see powerful lawyers like Attorney Buzbee giving out $30,000.00 dollar donations to candidates like Judge Brittanye Morris, the presiding judge for the 333rd Civil District Court, in Harris County, Texas. After all, there's only so much money to go around -- right?"



AUBREY R. TAYLOR: "For the record, Attorney Tony Buzbee is one of the most generous political donors in the state of Texas. And when it comes to supporting African American candidates, he's at the top of the list. How can I say this? Well, he donated a whopping $30,000.00 dollars to Brittanye Morris's campaign back on Wednesday, October 14, 2020. And what a lot of folks don't realize it that the $90,000.00 dollars that he donated to the Harris County Democratic Party back on Wednesday, August 22, 2018, was earmarked to support the "BLACK GIRL MAGIC JUDICIAL CAMPAIGN" from what I understand. Now, just how much of the $90,000.00 dollars Attorney Tony Buzbee gave the Harris County Democratic Party actually went toward supporting the African American female judicial candidates back during the 2018 Midterm Election cycle is unclear at this time."



AUBREY R. TAYLOR: "As you can see, on Wednesday, October 14, 2020, Attorney Tony Buzbee donated the amount of $30,000.00 dollars to Brittanye Morris's Campaign. Why is this important? This is vitally important because, many sitting incumbent Black judges have no money in their campaign coffers (in my opinion) in large part, due to the fact that they are not playing the political game right. What am I talking about? Well, in my opinion, politics have no place in the courtroom. So, that being said, sitting judges should be free to take donations from any attorney who is willing to donate to their re-election bids in the upcoming 2022 Midterm Election, and 2024 Presidential Election."


AUBREY R. TAYLOR: "As you can see, Attorney Tony Buzbee gave the Harris County Democratic Party a donation in the amount of $80,000.00 dollars back on Wednesday, August 22, 2018, right around the time that the "BLACK GIRL MAGIC JUDICIAL CAMPAIGN" was hitting full stride. Now, that being said, I believe that Attorney Tony Buzbee and other local lawyers should make their donations directly to the individual candidates of their choosing in the upcoming 2022 Midterm Election, and 2024 Presidential Election, or to solid Political Action Committees aimed at voter mobilization, outreach, and engagement."



AUBREY R. TAYLOR: "As you can see, Attorney Tony Buzbee gave the Harris County Democratic Party a donation in the amount of $10,000.00 dollars back on Wednesday, August 22, 2018, right around the time that the "BLACK GIRL MAGIC JUDICIAL CAMPAIGN" was hitting full stride. Now, that being said, I believe that Attorney Tony Buzbee and other local lawyers should make their donations directly to the individual candidates of their choosing in the upcoming 2022 Midterm Election, and 2024 Presidential Election, or to solid Political Action Committees aimed at voter mobilization, outreach and engagement."



AUBREY R. TAYLOR: "Now do you see this cat right here? This dude is something serious!!! Anyways, after Attorney Tony Buzbee had donated more than $90,000.00 dollars to the Harris County Democratic Party back during the 2018 Midterm Election to support the "BLACK GIRL MAGIC JUDICIAL CAMPAIGN" on Wednesday, August 18, 2018, this dude (Mayor Sylvester Turner) was shown all the love, while Buzbee was painted as a "TRUMP-LOVER" and Republican. Isn't that horrible? Did you even know that?"



AUBREY R. TAYLOR: "Politics is a dirty business. Now, that said, in the image above you can clearly see that Mayor Sylvester Turner donated the amount of $10,000.00 dollars to the Harris County Democratic Party back on Monday, April 22, 2019, and for the most part was shown all the love by the Harris County Democratic Party, while Attorney Tony Buzbee, and the $90,000.00 dollars he'd given to the Harris County Democratic Party to support "BLACK GIRL MAGIC JUDICIAL CAMPAIGN" was never even mentioned."

And that being said, in 2022, it is incumbent upon the voters of Harris County to evaluate the job performance of each and every sitting "ELECTED OFFICIAL" on a case-by-case basis and not as a group based on their political party affiliation, ethnicity, or gender.

If you are a candidate planning to run for office in 2022, you have to select the right candidate to run against.
