District H Runoff Set

The date has bee set for the final election showdown between Houston Police officer Ed Gonzalez and Former teacher   Maverick Welsh.

A  June 13,  2009 runoff   has been scheduled to fill the District H Seat  on Houston City Council, that has been vacant ever since  former councilman Adrian Garcia was elected Harris County Sheriff.

Gonzalez and Welsh finished first and second out of nine candidates who ran in the May 9th special election.

It’s an interesting district that combines historically Hispanic neighborhoods with areas of   the Heights that have seen an influx of  more affluent Anglo residents.
