Two Democrats seek to unseat Republican judges
From the Houston Chronicle, 10/21/2008:
Two Democratic attorneys are aiming to take the benches of two Republican state district judges in Fort Bend County.
Missouri City Democrat Milton Flick, 64, is challenging 400th District Court judge Cliff Vacek, 61, a Sugar Land Republican. Vacek was elected to the bench in 2004 after being appointed to the post by Gov. Rick Perry to fill the unexpired term of his predecessor Bradley Smith.
In the 434th District Court, Sugar Land Democrat Albert Hollan, 52, is opposing Missouri City Republican Jim Shoemake, 62, who was appointed to the bench by Perry when the state Legislature created the court in 2007.
