CONSIDER ME IN 2016

ERIC REED

“I’M A DEMOCRAT WHO VALUES EVERY VOTE!”

For Harris County Constable - Precinct 3 Dear Fellow Constituents,

My name is James Eric Reed and I would like to take this opportunity to announce my candidacy for the Harris County Precinct 3 Constable position. Hence, I respectfully ask for your vote and your support in the 2016 primary election.

Equally important is the fact that I am the proud son of the Late Mr. Elvin S. Reed and Patricia Reed. I am also younger brother to Donnie Reed and husband to Sandra C. Andrade-Reed. Together, Sandra and I have one child, Zane Reed.

From a previous marriage I have 3 other children, Nikki, Erica and Prince and 4 grandchildren. Family is of utmost importance to me and that is why I want to continue serving our communities, our youth and your family.

I was born and raised in Barrett Station and it was there that I learned the value and importance of loyalty, trust and respect. Having lived in Harris County Precinct 3 since birth and having served as a Harris County Deputy since 1994, I have dedicated myself to the service of the people. At the age of 15 I served in the Barrett Station fire department as an EMS volunteer. Years later I served as captain of the fire department as well as a board member of the Crosby EMS team.

As a Harris County Deputy, I have had the privilege of working in many schools including middle schools and high schools. Having worked at these schools has allowed me insight into the problems affecting our streets and our youth. I believe that my non-judgmental and fair approach in dealing with people has helped me positively impact many lives. I also believe that I have

helped guide and encourage many children onto a brighter and better future. Our children are our future and when I earn their trust and win their loyalty, I know I have done my job.

Furthermore, being a local resident, I am also well acquainted with the problems facing our communities. Therefore, as your Precinct 3 Constable, I will continue to dedicate myself and my department to the service of our communities and schools by identifying community needs, focusing on public safety, implementing crime prevention programs and allocating department resources to improving customer service. So, when elected, I will work diligently to restore a sense of trust, pride and efficiency back to Precinct 3 by being visible and accessible in our Precinct.

Please vote ERIC REED and let me prove that together we can create a better quality of life for all.

Eric Reed

Sincerely Yours,

FORT BEND DEMOCRATS

ATTENTION DEMOCRATS: The key Ground-Game Magazine® Tuesday, March 1, 2016 “Democratic” Primary “Competitive” Race in Fort Bend is the race for Texas State Representative (HD-27) between Ron Reynolds, Steve Brown, Angelique Bartholomew, and Chris Henderson.

Reynolds

Brown

Bartholomew

Henderson

***IMPORTANT (HD-27) INFORMATION

State Rep. Ron E. Reynolds (HD-27) is seeking re-election while fighting what he believes to be a miscarriage of justice he received

14

in Montgomery County. Reynolds is seeking to hold on to his seat while appealing his recent conviction on five counts of Misdemeanor barratry. He is out of jail after posting a $25,000 bond to gain his freedom -- as he fights to clear his name. His appeal in the “MISDEMEANOR BARRATRY CASE” is being handled by his fellow State Representative Harold Dutton (HD -142) – a wellknown Houston-area legislator and attorney. In a recent television interview Dutton seemed to allude to the fact that racism may have been a factor in the case against Reynolds – calling it “Conroe Justice.” It is also fair to note that, the misdemeanor conviction (alone) does not disqualify State Rep. Ron Reynolds from continuing to serve the people of Fort Bend County.

...SHOWDOWN State Representative Jessica Farrar Must Defeat Dave Wilson in the Tues., March 1, 2016 Democratic Primary to Keep Her Texas House District 148 Seat

By Aubrey R. Taylor Publisher of GROUND-GAME MAGAZINE®

The showdown for Texas State Representative for House District 148 will be a winner-take-all match decided by whoever finishes first in the 2016 Democratic Primary to be held on Tuesday, March 1, 2016.

THE RACE OUTLOOK

State Representative Jessica Farrar will be facing a formidable and ‘savvy’ political operative with some very ‘creative’ campaign strategies up his sleeves when she faces off against Dave Wilson, the current HCC Trustee for District II in the upcoming Democratic Primary. Ever heard of Dave Wilson? Well, Wilson is the guy who unseated Bruce Austin (a 24-year incumbent

and HCC Board Chairman) to win the seat he currently holds on the Houston Community College Board. Some say: “he pretended to be black to win the largely African American populated district.” Others say: “he’s a very good campaigner with a penchant for developing strategies that play to his strengths as a candidate.” But whatever the case, State Rep. Jessica Farrar had better not overlook Wilson; or discount the seriousness of the threat he poses to her reign as the State Representative for House District 148 in Harris County.

State Rep. Farrar was first elected to the Texas House of Representatives back in 1994, when she was only 27 years of age.

She’s currently the longest serving Hispanic member of the Texas House of Representatives from Harris County.

Early voting for the Tuesday, March 1, 2016 Democratic Primary will begin on Tuesday, February 16, 2016 and end on Friday, February 26, 2016.

Every Vote Will Count in the 2016 Democratic Primary!
