THE GAME PLAN...

Aubrey R. Taylor

281.788.3033 There’s nothing wrong with hoping for change.

There’s nothing wrong with praying for change. And there’s absolutely nothing wrong with marching and protesting for change. But as Albert Einstein stated: “…INSANITY: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.”

Look, we must change the way that we’ve been doing things if we want things to change for us.The people you see on these pages are all in some way or another -- CHANGE AGENTS! So let’s find creative ways to support our businesses and other entities that support, respect and value us and our communities in 2016 and beyond.

GROUND-GAME MAGAZINE® was born to combat “VOTER APATHY” and get more Americans inspired and encouraged to get off the sidelines and into the fight for territory that’s currently taking place in our nation.

“Let’s Play As A Team in 2016”

ON THE BLOCK

...SHOWDOWN Justice Hilary Harmon Green Must Fend Off Seven Democratic Opponents to Remain on the Bench

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

Justice of the Peace Hilary Harmon Green, will face the toughest challenge of her political career when she faces off against seven opponents in the Tuesday, March 1, 2016 Democratic Primary for Harris County. Appointed by the Harris County Commissioner’s Court back in 2007 to fill the unexpired term of Judge Betty Brock Bell, Justice of the Peace Hilary Harmon Green hasn’t faced this kind of political challenge before. The only challenge she’s faced thus far came back in the Tuesday, March 4, 2008 Democratic Primary when she handily defeated Giovanna Carroll-LaFleur in a lopsided contest where she finished the night with more than 77.74% of the vote to CarrollLaFleur’s 22.26% of the vote. But this time around she will have to fend off several key

Hilary H. Green Harris County Justice of the Peace Precinct 7, Place 1

Cheryl Elliott Thornton, Jerome Provost, Desmond Earl Spivey, Dr. Joseph R. Willie II, and Keryl L. Douglas

opponents who are mounting serious and viable campaigns to unseat her.

LOOKING AHEAD TO 2016

When early voting begins on Tuesday, February 16, 2016 in the Democratic Primary for Harris County, Justice Hilary Harmon Green will be facing off against fellow Democrats: Keryl L. Douglas, Cheryl Elliott Thornton, Fred Reynolds, Dr. Joseph R. Willie II, Elijah Carl Lewis, Desmond Earl Spivey, and Jerome Provost.

No other sitting (Democratic or Republican) judge has drawn more opponents than Justice Hilary Harmon Green has for the 2016 Primary cycle in Harris County. So stay tuned to see whether she will be able to rise to the challenge!

IN CASE YOU DON'T KNOW

Harris County Justice of the Peace courts are charged with handling matters such as Marriage Ceremonies, Class C Misdemeanor offenses, traffic citations, civil lawsuits (under $5,000.00 dollars), evictions and truancy cases.

Every Vote Will Count in the 2016 Democratic Primary!
