2020 JUDICIAL ENDORSEMENTS FOR HARRIS COUNTY, TEXAS Gerry Wayne Monroe The endorsements listed inside this “GROUND-GAME” edition of Houston Business Connections Newspaper are those of Gerry Wayne Monroe and does not necessarily refrect the views or opinions of Aubrey R. Taylor Communications, our readers, advertisers, or sponsors. However, if you believe that electing the “BEST QUALIFIED CANDIDATES” who best represents your interests, concerns, and issues that are near and dear to your heart – this “ENDORSEMENT SLATE” has been created with you in mind. So, as you prepare to make a wise voting decision on Tuesday, November 3, 2020, let’s not forget that “JUDICIAL RACES MATTER” and that we need “THE BEST QUALIFIED” people who have a heart for humanity serving as ministers of justice. And with that said, please know this: “When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn.” I actually found this passage of scripture in the book of Proverbs in the 29th Chapter and 2nd verse in the King James Version of the Holy Bible. In this, I am encouraging all of my fellow believers to cast their ballot for the “BEST QUALIFIED CANDIDATES” who value your vote, on Tuesday, November 3, 2020, in Harris County, Texas.
