As many of you know, the filing deadline for candidates running for office in the 2018 Election ended at 6 p.m. on Monday, December 11th.
Without commentary from me (at this point), below is the finalized field of candidates running for Harris County judgeships. It is complete to the best of my knowledge, after looking at the Harris County Democrat and Republican websites, the Secretary of State's website, and running it by candidates on both sides. If I inadvertently left anyone off, it is unintentional and I'll fix it if you let me know. Also, if you are missing a link to your campaign website, let me know and I'll add it.

I hate to say it but I fear this election will be the biggest sweep by democrats in the history of Harris county. I liked him at first but Trump has energized the democrats like nothing ever has before. Remember the 2008 elections and the flood of democrats with judgeships? This one is going to make that look like child's play.
Thank you for this list. I know this is preaching to the choir, but if you vote for someone simply because they're a Democrat or a Republican, you end of with judges like Kevin Fine and Jim Barr.
Vote John Wakefield in #9. He will do wonders.
Nowadays you have to vote by party. Better yet, by the party's platform. In case you haven't noticed, politicians by-and-large vote the party line. Except for the rare renegade, the days of a politician voting his conscience are long gone. They died with the advent of PAC's, who will fund a primary challenger should you step out of line.
Couple of questions. Why is Maritza running against Stacy? Why is McSpadden running again? And didn’t Detoto say she was running for something?
Why are you linking Matt Damon's IMDb profile to McSpadden's opponent's name?
PDiddie,
It's an inside joke. Brian thinks that he looks like Matt Damon and we don't have the heart to tell him the truth.
