The Houston DA is getting a mountain of Eyes today for prosecuting a doctor.
She was up for re-election in 2020, & challenged by a few progressive candidates in a Dem primary that just didn't generate that much buzz & attention.
(Which is just to say, local elections matter!!)

Houston's Ogg secured the nomination in March with 55%, avoiding runoff. I've wondered how well she'd have fared in July runoff (after attn to George Floyd, police, inequality) had she dipped below 50%.
Austin's DA went from being down 44/41 in March to losing 68/32 in July.
