HBC MAGAZINE© REPORTS

Is it possible that Democrats could turn Texas blue in 2018? It's still a little early to determine whether Democrats or Republicans will rule Texas in 2018 -- but as you prepare to make a wise voting decision, please keep in mind that no Democrat has won a statewide election in Texas since 1994. Also keep in mind that according to the Republican Party of Texas’ website, the people of Texas have entrusted Republicans with the stewardship of every statewide elected office and majorities in the state senate, state house and on the state board of education. Republicans currently have majorities in 107 Texas counties that contain nearly two-thirds of the state’s population. But could 2018 be “THE YEAR OF NOW” for Texas Democrats? These are a few of the “2018 DEMOCRATIC TRAILBLAZERS” running statewide in Texas who are sure hoping so: Trailblazing Judge Steven Kirkland currently serves as Presiding Judge for the 334th Civil District Court; but he’s running for Justice of the Texas Supreme Court for Place 2 on Tuesday, November 6, 2018 against incumbent Republican Judge Jimmy Blacklock; Trailblazing Judge Maria T. Jackson currently serves as Presiding Judge for the 339th Criminal District Court; but she’s running for Presiding Judge of the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals for Place 1 against either Republican Judge David Bridges or the Republican incumbent Presiding Judge Sharon Keller on Tuesday, November 6, 2018 – depending on which candidate wins the Tuesday, March 6, 2018 Republican Party Primary; Trailblazing Attorney Kathy Cheng is a first generation Asian American, who happens to be running for Justice of the Supreme Court for Place 6 against incumbent Republican Judge Jeff Brown on Tuesday, November 6, 2018; Trailblazing Judge Ramona Franklin currently serves as Presiding Judge for the 338th Criminal District Court; but she’s running for Judge of the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals for Place 7 against incumbent Republican Judge Barbara Parker Hervey on Tuesday, November 6, 2018, and finally, Trailblazing Judge R.K. Sandill currently serves as Presiding Judge for the 127th Civil District Court; but he’s running for Justice of the Supreme Court for Place 4 against incumbent Republican Judge John Devine on Tuesday, November 6, 2018. Please note that none of the aforementioned Democratic challengers will have to give up their current benches to run for higher office on Tuesday, November 6, 2018, in the General Midterm Election in Texas.

Trailblazing Judge Maria T. Jackson Believes in Second Chances; Judge Steven Kirkland, Judge Ramona Franklin, Judge R.K. Sandill are Announced as 2018 HBC Magazine© Trailblazers

HBC MAGAZINE© REPORTS

Do you believe in second chances? Many people don’t believe in granting second chances – that is, until they’re the one in need of one. Look, sometimes, the jolt a person who appears to be a lost cause needs to get their life on the right track isn’t found on “THE RAILROAD TO PRISON”, nor should it be administered by the “ELECTRONIC SHOCKWAVE SENT THROUGH A HUMAN BEINGS BODY” from the end of a taser’s probes prematurely deployed by a trigger-happy protector of freedom and justice. Nope, in some cases, what some wayward individuals need is a tough, caring, and stern public servant -- a compassionate, yet authoritative figure to show them that someone out there cares about them and the root cause of their troubles. Now, that doesn’t mean that every hardened criminal should get a get-out-of-jail-free-card. But it does indicate that better discernment could possibly be used when determining sentencing options. Such was the case when the path of Judge Maria T. Jackson and Mr. Patrick Moore’s intersected in a Harris County courtroom over 8-years ago. But don’t take our word for it. In the body of this report you will be afforded the opportunity to read the heartwarming words sent to Judge Jackson by Mr. Moore after getting his life on the right track – after being granted a new lease on life by this stern – yet compassionate judge.

AUBREY R. TAYLOR: "Houston Business Connections Magazine© would like to congratulate Mr. Patrick Moore for becoming the "IFBB PRO CHAMPION" and thank District Judge Maria T. Jackson for giving him a chance to get his life on the right track when many others would have perhaps sent him back to prison."

JUDGES LIKE MARIA T. JACKSON ARE A RARITY SAYS AUBREY R. TAYLOR

“The story of Patrick Moore is a clear and compelling example of why every able-bodied Texan should be concerned about the types of judges we place on the bench in the Lone Star State,” says Taylor. “This isn’t about “D’s” and “R’s” before names on the ballot anymore,” he passionately proclaims. “We need people holding gavels who are tough on crime – but what we “DO NOT NEED” are people in positions of authority who are compelled to legislate from the bench; carry out personal agendas; or willing to put their political party affiliation ahead of what’s just and fair.” 

A SECOND CHANCE GIVEN BY DEMOCRATIC JUDGE MARIA T. JACKSON TO PATRICK MOORE PAYS OFF BIG-TIME

Here’s a message Judge Maria T. Jackson recently shared with Houston Business Connections Magazine® from Mr. Patrick Moore: “Good afternoon Judge Jackson! I hope you are doing well!! This is Patrick Moore. I was in your courtroom roughly 8 years ago with yet another charge. I had basically been in and out of trouble since the age of 16, living reckless, no regards for the law or my own future which kept landing me in and out of jail. Well, this go-round it landed me in front of you. No plea agreement could be reached with the district attorney, so on the very last setting it ultimately came down to your recommendation as to what my punishment should be. At the time, I was certain I was headed back to jail -- I mean my background screamed: "he'll just get in trouble again." The last time I was in trouble the exact words from Judge Devon Anderson was: "he's going to jail, I'm not giving any probation and have that rock in my neck." And so off I was sent. But that day in front of you, which I'm forever grateful for, something must have fallen on your heart. Because you asked me: "Mr. Moore, are you ready to turn your life around?" I have to admit I was so shocked I couldn't believe it. And I answered "yes." Then you told me "ok I'm going to give you one last chance." And my heart sunk into my chest because I knew that with that I wasn't going to let you down! It was life-changing because a complete stranger took a chance on me to believe in me to become something other than just another inmate, or habitual criminal. And I walked out of your courtroom completely grateful with a mindset that I was going to turn my life around. So with that, fast forward to today, I have accomplished some amazing things. I became a personal trainer and started my business in Tomball, Texas. I'm probably the most successful trainer in Northwest Houston lol! But I didn't stop there! All that energy I used to put into doing the wrong things, I put it into my body and started bodybuilding. And as of last weekend, it all paid off! After 5 years of extremely hard work, I competed in Las Vegas, Nevada at the Mr. USA Championships and won, which earned my professional status in bodybuilding! I was extended a few endorsements as a result of that show and life couldn't be better! I remember telling you the last time I saw you, as you released me from community supervision that I was not going to let you down! And I'm extremely blessed to report back to you that I have kept my promise. I know that “me” landing in front of you 8 years ago was not happenstance, but instead it was God's plan, and you were truly a blessing in my life!! I thank you so much for the decision you made as it has forever changed my life!! God bless you so much and thank you again Judge Jackson!”

MEET JUDGE MARIA T. JACKSON

Judge Maria T. Jackson exemplifies the true essence of what it means to be a “TRAILBLAZER”. She is one of the toughest District Judges in Harris County, Texas -- from either major political party. She’s handed down some of the harshest sentences of any District Judge in the county – but she’s also displayed a measure of compassion as she administers even-handed justice on behalf of the people of our great state. “What I love most about Judge Maria T. Jackson is that she is definitely tough, but she also has a very compassionate and endearing side that tends to go unnoticed sometimes. She’s a judge who believes in giving people a second chance,” says Taylor. “We need more judges from both major political parties in Texas to use their discretion similar to what she’s doing, to help people “GET OFF THE WRONG TRACK” and onto the right one to turn their lives around,” he explains. “Some of these judges in Texas are treating wayward citizens like a number, and simply shuffling them through the oftentimes unfair and biased criminal justice system like slaves being sent off to work the master’s plantation – pigs being sent off to slaughter if you will,” proclaims Taylor. “Being tough on crime is one thing, but a judge using their power to impact people’s lives in a way that compels them to change for the better takes a unique skill set,” he says. “Giving a second chance to men like Mr. Patrick Moore is a gamble – most judges aren’t willing to take the risk. Some judges would have simply written this brother off as a lost cause – or someone who couldn’t be rehabilitated,” Taylor explains. “Sure giving someone a second chance is a risk – but it’s a risk worth taking.”

SHE'S READY RIGHT NOW!

Judge Maria T. Jackson has been the presiding Judge of the 339th State District Court in Houston, Harris County, Texas since the election of 2008. Judge Jackson presides over serious felony offenses, which run the gamut from low-level drug offenses to capital murder. She has presided over more than one hundred jury trials and several have been featured on The First 48 Hour national television show. She has appeared on many Houston radio and media outlets like Red, White and Blue Political Show, Magic 102, KCOH, and The Prison Show on FM 90.1. Judge Jackson has taken the lead in implementing sweeping changes for DWI probationers in her court. These changes are so notable that the Harris County Probation Department has followed Judge Jackson’s lead in implementing them countywide.

TEXAS NEEDS REBRANDING ACCORDING TO TAYLOR

“What Texas needs right now is a rebranding of sorts,” explains Aubrey R. Taylor, publisher of Houston Business Connections Magazine©. “I believe that Texans from all walks of life are tired of the divisiveness, and actually would like to see our elected officials work together across party lines to get things done for the betterment of us all,” he says. “ To achieve this, we Texans don’t need to be TEXAS-TWO-STEPPIN’ into voting booths and blindly casting ballots for Republicans or Democrats anymore anyways…GOD FEARING PEOPLE who are unafraid to wield their power in a compassionate manner is what we need going forward!” According to Taylor, this is perhaps the single most compelling reason why “ALL” Texans need to elect “FIRM, YET COMPASSIONATE FELLOW TEXANS” into positions of authority at all levels in the upcoming “2018 MIDTERM ELECTION”. He says, electing compassionate candidates who truly understand their power, and have the courage to put their God-given discernment to work when carrying out the duties they’ve been duly elected to perform while handling the people’s business is imperative.

2018 TO BE BRANDED AS “THE YEAR OF NOW” BY HBC MAGAZINE©

Some judges literally hold the power of life and death in their hands. Yet, oftentimes, these “SERVANTS OF GOD ALMIGHTY” are the least known candidates on the ballot in any given election cycle -- but this needs to change – and it needs to change quickly. Especially since in a few short years, no Texan will be able to vote a straight-party-ticket. This means, that every candidate on the ballot in Texas (including judges) must build their own individual name (I.D.) identification beyond their political party base – and they must also develop a platform that lends itself to providing Texans with a strong and very compelling reason for them to navigate their way down the ballot to cast a vote for their candidacy. So just in case you haven’t already heard, effective on September 1, 2020, the practice of voting a straight-ticket will no longer be allowed in the Lone Star State. “To be sure, nobody knows exactly what’s going to happen in 2020 when straight-ticket voting is no longer an option – and yes, that’s when President Donald Trump will be up for re-election,” says Taylor. “President Trump is a story for another day. And so is House Bill 25 – both are game-changers, but neither should be our primary focus at this time. Our attention should be focused on “THE HERE AND NOW”, and on two very important election dates – which happen to be: Tuesday, March 6, 2018, and Tuesday, November 6, 2018,” he says. “Tuesday, March 6, 2018, is the date when our two major political parties in Texas will be electing their nominees who will appear on Tuesday, November 6, 2018, General Midterm Election ballot. And in case you’re wondering, nearly every race will be contested in 2018 in the Lone Star State – SO LET’S FOCUS OUR UNDIVIDED ATTENTION ON “THE HERE AND NOW”.

LET’S WORK TOGETHER TO ELECT FAIR AND IMPARTIAL JUDGES IN TEXAS

On Tuesday, November 6, 2018, Judge Maria T. Jackson will seek to have her name written in the annals of Texas history by becoming the first African American woman to serve on the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals for Place 1. “The time has come for “ALL” Texans to put divisiveness aside and come together to do something truly special in the Lone Star State,” says Taylor. “Judge Maria T. Jackson is duly-qualified, fair, firm, and compassionate,” he explains. “I’m not “FOR” or “AGAINST” either major political party in Texas – I simply want “All” Texans to be treated fairly in the eyes of the law,” he explains. “Judge Maria T. Jackson is the only candidate in the race for Presiding Judge for the Court of Criminal Appeals for Place 1 (at this time) who has reached out to us, and assured us that she values the vote of every Texan without respect to their ethnicity, gender, political party affiliation, or socio-economic – we’re hopeful others will soon follow,” he says. “But for now, it’s our prayer that every open-minded voter in the Lone Star State will strongly consider candidates like Judge Maria T. Jackson, and the countless others who respect us, and are committed to serving our great state with blindfold justice that’s administered fairly, unbiased, and without prejudice.”

KEY PRIMARY INFORMATION 

Make no mistake about it, putting a strong slate of potential nominees together for the 2018 MIDTERM ELECTION will be crucial for the party that expects to claim victory on Tuesday, November 6, 2018 in Harris County, Texas. So don't forget that we saw a Republican sweep back in THE 2014 MIDTERM ELECTION and a Democratic sweep back in THE 2016 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION in Harris County. So, 2018 should be very competitive and interesting in Texas – especially since this is the last election when “STRAIGHT-TICKET VOTING” will be allowed in Texas thanks to HB25 which goes into effect on Tuesday, September 1, 2020. In case you haven't heard, back on June 1, 2017, Governor Greg Abbott signed into law House Bill 25, which eliminates the straight-ticket voting option in Texas for all races beginning in 2020.

SELECTING THE BEST DEMOCRATIC AND REPUBLICAN NOMINEES ON TUESDAY, MARCH 6, 2018 IS IMPERATIVE FOR BOTH MAJOR POLITICAL PARTIES

FEATURED 2018 PRIMARY JUDICIAL RACE: Judge Judy Warne (Republican) will not be running for re-election in 2018 in the race for District Judge, 257th District Court. However, Melanie Flowers a well-known Republican leader will be running for District Judge, 257th District Court in the Tuesday, March 6, 2018 Republican Primary in Harris County, Texas. But Flowers won't be alone, former Republican Judge Alyssa Lemkuil (507th District Court) will also be making a bid for this bench. ON THE DEMOCRATIC SIDE: A very well-known Democratic leader by the name of Sandra Peake will be running for District Judge, 257th District Court in the Tuesday, March 6, 2018 Democratic Primary in Harris County. However, we are unsure at this time if Sandra Peake will have a Democratic opponent in the Tuesday, March 6, 2018 Democratic Primary. But don't forget that Houston Business Connections Magazine© will be publishing a "2018 DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY SLATE" and a "2018 REPUBLICAN PRIMARY SLATE" for the upcoming primaries. So, in the mean time, here are a few of the "DISTINGUISHED HARRIS COUNTY LEADERS" you should get to know in the coming months!

Former Judge Alyssa Lemkuil is a Republican candidate running for District Judge, 257th District Court in the Tuesday, March 6, 2018 Republican Primary. Lemkuil was appointed to serve as presiding judge for the 507th Judicial Court in Harris County, Texas by Gov. Greg Abbott for a term that expired in November of 2016. So, she faced off against her Democratic challenger Julia Maldonado back on Tuesday, November 8, 2016 in the Presidential Election and came up short in a bid to serve a full term. Due to straight-ticket voting, Judge Alyssa Lemkuil trailed her Democratic challenger by 70,367 straight-ticket votes and could not make up the difference. Before being appointed to the 507th Judicial District Court by Gov. Abbott she served as associate judge in the 308th Judicial District Court in Harris County.

GOVERNOR GREG ABBOTT WILL BE THE MAN TO BEAT ON TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 2018 IN THE STATE OF TEXAS

GREG ABBOTT -- GOVERNOR OF TEXAS

Our primaries in Texas (in general) and Harris County (in particular) will for the most part be about two people – Governor Greg Abbott, and whomever the Texas Democratic Party can convince to challenge him. However, after the beating Gov. Abbott put on his last Democratic rival, former state senator Wendy R. Davis back in 2014, no big names have officially stepped up to the plate to challenge him as of yet. Oh, I forgot, the Democrats do have Jeffrey Payne, the owner of a gay bar in Dallas, Texas. Payne has publicly stated that he plans to challenge Gov. Abbott in 2018. And according to published reports, he plans to loan his campaign at least $2 million dollars to help his cause. But he’ll need a lot more than that to win in Texas. Anyways, in case you’ve forgotten, Gov. Greg Abbott received 2,796,547 votes for 59.27% of the vote back on Tuesday, November 4, 2014 statewide in Texas. The Democratic nominee, Wendy R. Davis received 1,835,596 votes for 38.90% of the statewide vote. To round out the 2014 MIDTERM ELECTION field of gubernatorial candidates Kathie Glass (Libertarian) received 66,543 for 1.41%; Brandon Parmer a member of the Green Party received 18,520 for 0.39%; and Sarah M. Pavitt a write-in candidate received 1,062 for 0.02% of the statewide vote in Texas.

HERE'S HOW GOVERNOR GREG ABBOTT PERFORMED IN HARRIS COUNTY BACK IN THE 2O14 MIDTERM ELECTION 

In Harris County back in the 2014 MIDTERM ELECTION: Governor Greg Abbott received 349,639 votes for 51.41% of the Harris County vote. The Democratic nominee Wendy R.
