New blog alert - Mayoral Musings, by Nancy Sims, who is a PR professional and Adjunct Professor of Political Science at the University of Houston. From the welcome post:
This Blog has been created to serve as a resource for the 2009 Houston Mayoral Campaign. It has been discussed with each Mayoral candidate and they plan to share important information.[...]
Historically, only about 1/3 of eligible voters in Houston select the Mayor in open contests. Voter turnout has been as low as 20%. These numbers tell a sad story. A select few Houstonians are choosing our leaders.
It is my deepest hope that this Blog, along with other coverage, will increase these numbers in 2009!
We will provide a one-stop source with as much information as possible on the Mayoral race, including candidate press releases, announcements, events, public forums and more.
Interestingly enough, UH lists her as a lecturer:

I presume she picks up an undergrad course on occasion?
