Wolfe withdraws primary challenge

Last week, when we heard about the Harris County Department of Education taking action to boot Michael Wolfe off the Board, we learned that Wolfe, who still has three years remaining in his term as an At Large trustee, had filed to run in the Republican primary against Board President Angie Chesnutt in Precinct 4. Apparently, he has now changed his mind about that and will not be a candidate for that seat. Among other things, this means that if the attempt to remove Wolfe from the Board is successful, he will not have a back door to get in again. We’ll know in January where that stands.
