John Whitmire, a Democratic state senator, defeated Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee in the Houston mayoral race. Jackson Lee faced a landslide defeat after her campaign imploded over a leaked recording of an expletive-laden rant at staffers. Whitmire focused on high city crime while Jackson Lee tried to claim he was a closet Trump supporter. Despite support from Nancy Pelosi and the Clintons, Jackson Lee lost by a 30-point margin. Following her mayoral defeat, Jackson Lee filed for reelection to Congress, while Whitmire took a parting shot at her, stating 'We don't bully people.'
