Upcoming City Council campaign events

I know the races in San Antonio and CD22 have us all spellbound, but the City of Houston will be having an election this year, and while I don't expect this year's slate to be full of barnburners, there are certainly some races of interest going on. The following is an email from the Houston Democratic Forum about some upcoming Council campaign events of interest:


Peter Brown (candidate for City Council At-Large Position 1) will have a campaign kick-off event from 5:30pm to 7:30pm on Monday, April 25 at the Holiday Inn Select on 2712 Southwest Freeway (between Kirby and Greenway Plaza). All are welcome, minimum donation of $25 for event.

Mark Lee (candidate for City Council District C) will have a campaign kick-off event from 5:30pm to 7:30pm on Wednesday, April 27 at the Holiday Inn Select on 2712 Southwest Freeway (between Kirby and Greenway Plaza). All are welcome, no minimum donation listed for event.

Jay Aiyer (candidate for City Council At-Large Position 2 and former President of the Houston Democratic Forum) will have a fundraiser event from 6:00pm to 8:00pm on Wednesday, May 4 at the Continental Club on 3700 Main Street. All are welcome, minimum donation of $10 for event.


Make your plans as needed. I can tell you that I've been running into these three guys all over town - Peter Brown was at my neighborhood civic association meeting where we endorsed the CTC proposal on toll road accountability - so they're clearly ready for action. These events are usually pretty small, so they're an excellent opportunity to meet the candidates for yourself and to make good contact with the campaign if you want in on it.

I'd also like to point out that the Jay Aiyer event has the added draw of the band Light Rock Express. On a normal day alone, that's worth $10.
