Houston is the number one place for blacks in the country so there will be a black mayor, no puzzle here! Only if you get out the lazzy white vote, never!

I just bought a house outside the city limits that has a brand new municipal utility district. That means it won't be annexed by the city for many years because they'd have to pay off the bonds.

Now get this, there's a black area in another county that votes ninety per cent Brown and it's in the Houston city limits. I'll never understand how a city that is the county seat from one county can reach over into another county.

Lazy white has nothing to do with it, it has to do with where the city limits are drawn.

Most of the conservatives live in the "burbs" and cannot vote for mayor, even though their address as Houston listed as the city.

Say what? Blacks are not the majority population in Houston.
