It Just Gets Better in Harris County for Democrats

In a stunning article in today's Houston Chronicle, Alan Bernstein detailed the distinct financial advantage that Harris County Democrats will have heading into the November election.

Little-known Texas organizations that support Democratic candidates are pouring money and personnel into Harris County at seldom-seen levels for the Nov. 4 election, with the help of a few wealthy statewide donors and national labor unions.
The outpouring of support is part of a well organized effort to take back Harris County:

the work is part of an unprecedented push to aim resources at Houston-area elections through two groups run by a Washington-based director: The Texas Democratic Trust and the Lone Star Fund.
One of the largest donors, John Eddie Williams said the reason for the effort is that:

"There is no down-the-middle approach anymore" in the local justice system, he said. "The Republicans have the (Texas) Supreme Court, the appeals courts and district courts, and working families in Texas are losing their rights, and corporate America now owns our court system."

Remember, Democrats have Nick Lampson spending money to get out the Democratic vote in the area, and his television ads, if nothing else, will bleed into Harris County. Democrats have Barack Obama, Rick Noriega, Adrian Garcia, David Mincberg, Chris Bell, Michael Skelly, Christy Thibault, and others running in the western part of Harris County, and thus are likely to see unprecedented turnout among Democrats in that region who are rarely if ever addressed in county-wide races.

The Mike Engelhart for Judge Campaign is very excited to be part of this important effort to restore a level playing field to Harris County and our courts.
