“The District Clerk’s Office is sorely in need of the seasoned, mature leadership that Marilyn Burgess will provide. She will restore integrity to the office. She will provide the strong administrative guidance required to usher in the age of all-electronic filing.“

Harris County District Clerk – What is that? What do they do? It is the office of the record keeper for the County Courts, handles funds related to cases, coordinates jury panel selection process, and so much more behind the scenes for our judicial system.

The right person for the job is Marilyn Burgess. She has strong management, financial, and organizational skills. I have known her for about four years and have admired her strong work ethic and her moral compass. As a CPA, she brings financial expertise, integrity, and honesty. As an involved citizen, she has volunteered with the PTA at a local level, and eventually became executive director of the Texas PTA.

Harris County is bigger than half the states in the United States in population and finances. This requires a leader with the skills of Marilyn Burgess. She’s got my vote. Please give her yours.

“I endorse Marilyn Burgess for District Clerk. I only met her during this cycle, but like Diane Trautman she’s been out there campaigning for months, and she has great credentials for this office. All three of her opponents entered the race in the last days of the filing period. Two have no web presence – one was a candidate for SBOE in 2016, and had no web presence then, either – and one has a mostly unreadable website. District Clerk is – or at least should be – one of the least political elected offices out there. It’s about doing a straightforward information management job. I have faith Marilyn Burgess can do that job, and I’m voting for her.”

“I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Marilyn Burgess for more than 15 years, and I can honestly say she is one of the hardest working people I’ve ever met. I met Marilyn when she served as President of the North Houston-Greenspoint Chamber of Commerce and witnessed first-hand her ability to bring business and community people together around a common cause.

“I have served my Aldine community in different capacities over the years including as president of my civic association (Imperial Valley), Board Trustee for Aldine ISD, and currently as an elected member of the Lone Star College Board of Trustees. I have also served as Democratic precinct chair (423), and as vice-chair of the Harris County Tejano Democrats.

“When I found out that Marilyn was running for District Clerk, I was overjoyed.  The District Clerk’s office is responsible for the safekeeping of so many important records, including those involving family matters, as well as the fair and equitable treatment of selecting juries.  We need an intelligent, capable, progressive-minded person to represent us, and Marilyn far exceeds those expectations.  It is with great enthusiasm that I endorse her candidacy for District Clerk in this election.”
