Early Voting:
June 3-11

I’m standing outside what is supposed to be XMi Protection which has been awarded >400k in non-competitive contracts to provide personal security to Lina and her appointees. Our taxes should go to protecting all residents not just those in power.

It's just math. The Elections Administrator's Office doesn't make sense and should be eliminated.

I am overwhelmed by the support, hard work, and encouragement of PCs, the grassroots, HCRP, elected officials and my family. This doesn’t happen without everyone pulling together. The work of representing Harris County tax payers begins July 1st and I can’t wait to get started.
Congratulations

on your incredible wins! This is a huge victory for Harris County taxpayers and a testament to the strength of the Republican grassroots.
47,324 miles traveled; 7,239 doors knocked; 872 meetings; countless supporters, handshakes and prayers; one loving and supportive family. It has all come down to today. Let’s Go!!!

@MdBreathe
held a press conference today with
@SenBobHall
about the reforms that need to be adopted regarding the Texas Medical Board. TMB is being used to unjustly go after Dr. Bowden and those like her. Keep up the good fight and know you have help when you need it.
Buzbee chaired the Democratic Party in Galveston County, donated to Hillary Clinton and voted in the Democratic primary last year. Why do Republicans think he’s conservative?
Thank you for all of your support. We are heading into the runoff on June 15th with tremendous momentum. Let’s keep it going and finish the job. Thank you all!!
A CoH Ordinance requires 1.75% of all Capital Spending be allocated to art. Agenda Item
#32
is for $3.9 million in repairs to a city facility. The ordinance requires $61k of that to be spent on art. Please support Fred Flickinger Dist. E and his Amendment to end this ordinance.
Alright folks. Let’s try this again. Just filed to run for the HCAD Board. Election date is May 4th. The campaigning will kick off in full force in March. More to come!!!
***Update*** My son came home as a surprise for the election. Game time!!! If he can drive from Norman, OK…you can drive a couple miles to vote.
Stop by to see him at Nottingham Park tomorrow.
The majority on Harris County Commissioners Court voted to divert $53 million from the toll roads to expand bike and hike trails. If there is excess money it should be used to reduce tolls. We need transparency and accountability

We should also divest ourselves from

— any other publicly traded company— that employs pharmacists who stand in the way of the doctor/patient relationship. University endowments should do the same.
Harris County: We can do this, but it takes work. There is no riding the wave, there is only making the wave happen. Every candidate in every race has to work. She did it the right way. Congratulations

This historic win will bring back God to the halls of Congress! This win is for the people who were ignored for so long! This is a message that the establishment will no longer be tolerated! We have officially started the red wave!!

Day 10. Good morning! If you’ve already voted please tell friends and family to do the same. If you have not voted, today would be a great day to do so. Thanks for all of your support.

These doors aren’t going to knock on themselves. If you’ve already voted: Thank you. Please ask friends and family to do the same. If you have not voted, please do so. Election Day is Tuesday, November 8th.

While taxpayers struggle with inflation and crime,
@LinaHidalgoTX
is using taxpayer $$ for herself instead of the public good. In April XMi Protection was awarded $125K for the personal protection of Hidalgo. This month XMi was awarded $320k. Both were no-bid contracts.
Elections are unpredictable. But I can guarantee this: There won’t be a line when you vote in the HCAD Election. Your vote carries substantially more weight in this election than in any other countywide election. Let’s fix a broken property valuation and appeals process.
Block walking is the pathway to victory in November. Thank you to the volunteers who dedicated their Saturday to this day of action.

A death is a time to put politics and differences aside. Let us hold her family, and all those who cared for her, in our prayers. May they have the peace they need while dealing with their loss. May Rep. Jackson Lee find peace in her eternal rest.
Hidalgo should not be surprised there are issues with procurement given that some of her top staffers are under indictment for bid rigging. Her proposal for reform will likely include centralization of the procurement process with oversight from her office. But there are 4...🧵
I’ll take a little bit of rain instead of 100 degree temps for block walking any day. Early voting starts in one week. Election Day is 11/8.
#harriscountytreasurer
It’s a family affair. I’m on the east side, my wife is in the northwest, and my son is in a parade in Baytown. Thanks to all those volunteering for candidates. We couldn’t do it without you.
#harriscountytreasurer
Every vote matters. Congratulations Julian!!! This means we have three Republicans—Willie Davis and Twila Carter—in at large seats. With a majority of at-large seats, and the passage of Prop A, conservatives can have an outsized impact on council.
We have just over two weeks to do everything we can to make sure there’s a change in Harris County government. We need to stop the back room deals and bring Transparency to the county budget.
Tomorrow is the day folks. If your property taxes are important to you, this election is important to you. Our arbitrary and capricious property valuation and appeals process must be rectified. Your vote will be the difference. Thank you
@AlexMealerTX
for continuing the fight!!
Thank you to all the blockwalkers, phone bankers, volunteers and precinct chairs for all the work you’re doing across Harris County.
#harriscountytreasurer
Thank you
@HRBC1
for your support and for reminding people to vote this Saturday. The new HCAD Board will be seated on July 1st, which means this Saturday, 6/15, is your last chance to get people on the HCAD Board who are committed to improving our valuation and appeals process.

things in commissioner’s court. Speakers from all sides of the political spectrum are speaking out against the incompetence of how our elections were run.
After a block walk in Crosby I am fortunate to join an engagement effort in Midtown this afternoon. Thanks to all the volunteers this morning and for Ms. Fe who organized this afternoon.
In less than a week early voting begins. Thank you
@TexasGOP
for endorsing me for the HCAD Board of Directors.
If property taxes and valuations are important to you then this is an election that is important to you.
Early Voting: April 22-30
Election Day: May 4th
Through Day 3 of early voting there have been 9801 total votes: 0.37% turnout. Your vote will decide whether HCAD brings consistency to the valuation process, audits suspicious valuations, and hires/trains those who hear your protest appeals.

First stop of the day. I’m running for HCAD Board of Directors. This is a countywide position. This will be a low turnout election. If you can call/text the people you know, and get them to vote, let me know: vote4kylescott

Election Day 5/4
Early Voting 4/22-4/30
Going to be a short night for some candidates and a long one for others. My buddy Julian Ramirez is up 50.2% to 49.8%. If you don’t think every vote matters…think again.
Only 19.7% of the projects from the 2018 Bond have been completed and more than $2 Billion from the original $2.5 is still available. We don't need more money thrown at the problem we need better management of the money we already have. Taxpayers should demand accountability.
❗️Harris County residents: the Democrat majority
@AdrianGarciaHTX
@RodneyEllis
and
@LinaHidalgoTX
are floating ballot bond initiatives. This will raise your taxes during crushing inflation. I’d suggest calling your commissioners or county judge and inform them you are against it.
Family is the best. My parents hosted a Meet and Greet this afternoon that my wife and daughter attended and my son blockwalked this morning while I was at another event. It’s a family affair. Thanks for everyone’s hard work!!
Getting ready to kickoff the
@HarrisCountyRP
block walk this morning. This HCAD Election is going to be extremely low turnout. Every vote matters!!!
Early Voting is April 22-30 and Election Day is May 4th.
All I wanted to do was have breakfast and here’s this guy again.

Julian Ramirez for the 248th. I’m running for Harris County Treasurer in order to stop the waste and corruption so our law enforcement and judges have the resources they need to keep our community safe.
It’s a boost of energy to keep knocking on doors when a voter I’ve just met agrees to put out a sign. Thanks to Rolando for helping get the word out for my race for Treasurer,
@HCPrecinct4
and
@AlexMealer4HCTX
Seems like $1.7 Billion would warrant a discussion. Seems like keeping tolls in place would warrant discussion. Seems like I’m out of sink with what the commission thinks warrants discussion.
Day 5. Working the north side today. When I get pictures like the one I received yesterday it makes it all worthwhile. Thanks for all of your support.
#harriscountytreasurer
It’s a school holiday which means more people are home compared to a typical Monday. Perfect for knocking on doors and putting out signs.
#harriscountytreasurer
Thank you
@TomSRamsey2
for endorsing me for the HCAD Board of Directors. We’re doing our best to get you more support in the county.
Early Voting: April 22-30
Election Day: May 4th
We’ll all be behind you this November as well!!
Thanks to this small business owner, and so many others, for allowing me to put up a sign and help get the word out that we need to restore Accountability, Transparency, and Integrity to Harris County finances.
#harriscountytreasurer
Last stop of the day and I get to see Mayor Brandon Capetillo of Baytown. With more than 30 municipalities in Harris County it’s essential that the county government cooperates with all of them to support infrastructure and public safety.
#harriscountytreasurer
To everyone who voted, volunteered, endorsed, donated, and supported…this is because of you!!! Thank you!! Let’s do it again in November.
#harriscountytreasurer
It’s just math. The Justice and Safety initiatives are ineffective. We need to get back to providing resources to law enforcement and electing judges who care about public safety. Harris County Reports 720 Homicides Last Year, Up 65 Percent From 2018

Some of our judicial candidates discussing why it’s so important to vote in every judicial race. I’m proud to be on the ballot with each of them. Thank you

for hosting this event.
Art and I served on the Board together at Lone Star. Despite different voting records, we were collegial and worked in good faith. He knows I’ll bring the same level of care and hard work to serve the people of Harris County. Thank you for your support.
The Harris County Treasurer could have stopped payment once the contract was cancelled. Furthermore, the Treasurer is authorized to retrieve all debts owed to the county. Instances such as this is one of the reasons I’m running for Treasurer—-to protect taxpayers.
Somebody needs to explain why the County paid $885,000 on the vaccine outreach contract after
@LinaHidalgoTX
announced it was to be cancelled, forcing the County Attorney to now try and recover the taxpayers' money.
We live in a diverse county of 4.7 million people who all want Harris County to start tackling the problems that matter: crime, infrastructure and ending corruption. Today is India Independence Day.
#harriscountytreasurer
I am proud to be endorsed by the Houston Police Officers' Union PAC. The top two issues in Harris County are public safety and infrastructure. But we can't get those two issues right unless we get the money right which requires Transparency in the budget. Thank you

Fors Marsh was given a no bid contract on 4/5 for “analysis and evaluation” of the primary election. Why are they evaluating elections? They specialize “in the business of measuring, understanding, and influencing the way people think and make decisions” according to their site.
THE FIX IS IN: Harris County Commissioners court will be revisiting the pricing for the mail absentee ballots printed by *Runbeck Election Services* for the upcoming November Elections.
Fors Marsh Group [Smartmatic Heider Garcia Consultant] will also be offering their services
While I walk out the door for a campaign event, my daughter (and dog apparently) is making sure all is in order with the spreadsheets. If she could drive, she’d be at a campaign event too. It’s a family affair.
#harriscountytreasurer
More than 4.7 million people live in Harris Co and spread over more than 1700 sq. miles. The needs and interests are diverse, but all want to see their tax $’s spent fixing real problems like infrastructure and crime. They are tired of the fraud and waste.
