or Tony Buzbee?

Additional candidates include:

Sylvester Turner (incumbent)
Bill King (2015 mayoral candidate)

Buzbee has been on a whirlwind tour around Houston trashing Turner for the firefighter layoffs this week.

I haven't paid close attention to this at all, but weren't layoffs a given after the FD thing passed at midterms? They got a pay raise and the extra money had to come from somewhere. Does Buzbee have a point?

Buzbee is a blow hard. The fire fighters made their bed.

Turner is gonna win. Bill King needs more charisma if he has any chance. Not sure if people even take Buzbee seriously although he has a fairly large following. I personally like him.

This isn't Turners fault. At all. He was against Prop B from the get go. The firefighters are the ones getting themselves laid off out of wanting instant greed.

Booker T just received a major endorsement from Hilton Mattress. Think this puts him over the top

Turner has done a pretty good job. I get why the firefighters don’t like him. I don’t blame them at all. Turner is trying to work around some pension issues he didn’t create.

Booker needs to hope this video of him saying a racial slur never sees the light of day

Owl can't be happy watching Hidalgo instead of Emmett on the tv during the plant fires.
