We come to the end of the campaign finance reports for July. I’ll try to do the 30 day finance reports for Congress and the Lege, but in the meantime here are reports for the HCC Trustees:
Adriana Tamez
Carolyn Evans-Shabazz
Dave Wilson
Eva Loredo
John Hansen
Neeta Sane
Pretta VanDible Stallworth
Robert Glaser
Zeph Capo
Dist Name Raised Spent Loans On Hand
=========================================================
3 Tamez 0 267 0 5,701
4 Evans-Shabazz 5,600 4,134 0 1,653
2 Wilson 0 0 12,782 0
8 Loredo 700 70 0 255
6 Hansen 2 0 5,000 8,928
7 Sane 0 3,823 0 11,319
9 Stallworth 14,175 2,758 0 0
5 Glaser 0 0 5,000 1,125
1 Capo 0 0 0 2,064
The weird order to the reports is due to the idiosyncratic way that one accesses HCC finance reports – basically, things are sorted in alphabetical order by first name, so that’s how I prepared this. Sorry, even I have limits. As was the case with the HISD reports, there hasn’t been much fundraising activity for HCC, which isn’t that surprising given that there usually isn’t that much fundraising activity even when there are elections coming up. The main thing you need to know is that 2019 is the year we get the chance to rid ourselves of the stain that is Dave Wilson. Zeph Capo and Neeta Sane will also be on the ballot, but the race that matters is in District 2. Wilson spends his own money on his political endeavors, so pay no attention to his Raised and On Hand totals. Just be prepared to support his eventual opponent (hopefully there will be just one), and never forget this lesson in Why Every Election Matters.
