HOUSTON, Texas– A Democratic political consultant and entrepreneur has officially announced his intention to run for Fort Bend County Judge, adding a new contender to a race already marked by increasing scrutiny of the current judge, KP George.
Eddie Sajjad is poised to bring a fresh perspective to the role, raising the stakes for the upcoming election.
Sajjad’s campaign emphasizes his commitment to fostering economic growth and community development in Fort Bend County.
His strategic plan aims to generate over $100 million in economic benefits for the region, positioning him as a candidate focused on addressing the county’s economic challenges.
The race for county judge is becoming more competitive with the entry of other prominent candidates.
Nabil Shike, a former constable, has declared his candidacy, with a campaign centered on law enforcement experience and a focus on safety and justice.
Additionally, Christian Becerra, a district court judge, has entered the race, bringing his judicial experience and pledging to promote fairness and integrity in county governance.
Sajjad’s candidacy places him in direct competition with George, a fellow Democrat, whose leadership has faced criticism in recent months.
George’s tenure has sparked debate, creating an environment that may open the door for new leadership in the county. Voters will have a choice between maintaining the status quo or opting for change.
