The latest from Conroe's historic election season.
In a runoff election held Saturday, June 13, Tanya Brown Maddux defeated Jay Gross to become the next Conroe Municipal Judge. The victory marks a historic milestone: Maddux becomes the first woman elected to serve as Conroe's Municipal Judge.
A lifelong Conroe resident, Maddux brings 25 years of community service, a background in accounting and education, and deep roots in the city she will now serve from the bench.
Following their decisive May 2 victories, Kristin Hoisington, Ken Blevins, and John Sellars were sworn in to the Conroe City Council. Hoisington won with 60.34%, Blevins with 53.28% in a three-way race, and Sellars with 58.57%. Three open seats, three clear mandates.
All three have already begun work on the issues that brought voters to the polls.
The Save Downtown Conroe documentary series laid out the case over three episodes released in the weeks leading up to the election. Episode 1 documented what downtown Conroe had and what was being priced out. Episode 2 examined the $170 million Hyatt hotel deal and its consequences for city finances. Episode 3 introduced the candidates.
Voters watched. Then they showed up.
From documentary series to election night.
