Openly Lesbian Houston Mayoral Candidate, Annise Parker, leads race and makes run-off

Openly Lesbian Houston Mayoral Candidate, Annise Parker, leads the race with 28% in a four person race. She will face a run-off in 5 weeks. She's a former city council member and city controller. In her "victory" speech, she appeared next to her partner and daugther and at the end of the speech, put her arm around both. Shows Houston is much more inclusive than many might think. Makes me proud to be a Houstonian!

Also proves not everyone in Texas think like Bush.
