and I hope she gets back into politics. Unfortunately, we have term limits.

Our new mayor, Sylvester Turner, is doing a great job IMHO. He ran for mayor several times in the past, starting in 1991 and I felt he wasn't ready. But he's served in the Texas House of Representatives for several years, including on the state budget commitee. I felt he was ready this time around and I was happy to vote for him.
