Mike's Opinion

Guest blog post from "Mike" ... no further explanation available:

It's a sad day for Houston politics. What precedent have we set for ourselves? How much more can we lower the bar? Not only did Democrats lose this election, but Houstonians lost this election. Houstonians lost this election to a giant out of state labor union. Houston's future was just tossed into the wind, and where it will land, no one knows. Instead of ideas, progress, and cooperation in city hall, we've lodged a wrench into the essential gears of the city's clockwork. Election laws are not for show, they exist for a reason. Mr. Mayor, members of council, please take note of the legal travesty that happened in Houston tonight.
