Flooding takes center stage as Harris County judge candidates discuss infrastructure & transparency.


At the Harris County candidate forum, Democrats Letitia Plummer and Annise Parker—who will compete in a runoff against one another on May 26—outlined how they would address flooding in low lying southside neighborhoods. Plummer focused on past drainage funding, infrastructure gaps, and the need to speed up bond spending. Parker emphasized project prioritization, cross‑jurisdiction challenges, and clearer communication with residents about what projects are coming and why.
