Jenifer Rene Pool's Council Campaign Gets Houston GLBT Political Caucus Endorsement

Jenifer Rene Pool is trying to make trans history on a number of fronts in her history making Houston City Council run.

If she wins she not only would become the first open trans person elected to political office in the state of Texas and the city of Houston, she would also become the first transperson elected to a city council in a municipality with a population larger than 250,000 people.

Jenifer is running for the At-Large Position 2 seat on our newly expanded council being vacated by the term limited Sue Lovell, and her candidacy got a major boost with the August 3 endorsement of the Houston GLBT Political Caucus.  If you're a Democratic or liberal progressive politician in this city, it's a sought after endorsement and of course she's ecstatic about it.

Jenifer has also received the endorsements of the Houston Stonewall Democrats, the Houston Stonewall Young Democrats, and Democracy For Houston in addition to this GLBT Political Caucus one.   And yep, here's the link to her campaign website so y'all can help a transsister out with some cash and find out where she stands on the issues important to Houston voters.

Congrats Jenifer!  You deserve it.   I'll be proud to cast a ballot for you in the first city election I get to participate in since moving back home and here's hoping you get to make history on November 8.
