They've been telling us we are going to get water and sewer but we haven't got it yet," says [Idamae Burgman]. "We are paying for it but we don't have any. After years of official neglect, when Fort Bend County Judge Bob Hebert took office in 2003, he decided to make getting potable water and adequate sewage for Fresno and Arcola a priority. He was the ideal man for the job, having worked for decades in the private sector putting together water deals. "We have case histories of raw sewage running in the ditches, over and over again," he says. "Whenever it rains, these septic tanks run over and we worry about water-borne diseases.

Anglos, African Americans, Hispanics, and Asians each account for about 25 percent of the area's population growth, which means that the percentage of Anglos is dropping steaddy. "If Howard is opposed, he shouldn't take it lightly," Murray says. "It could be a very meaningful election. [Paula Stansell] realizes she won't have much money.

We are anticipating a virtual sweep of county and statewide races in Brazoria, and I know that expectations are high in Fort Bend as well. It's a good time to be a Democrat.

Many local races were still decided in the Democratic primary...
