While there are twice as many confirmed candidates for the Democratic nomination, most have conceeded that the nomination will fall to former Houston mayor Bill White. However, 50% plus 1 is what is needed in order to prevent a run-off election, and this is something to keep in mind as the polls remain open.
Other candidates on the Demorcratic side include: Alma Ludvina Aguado, Felix Alvarado, Bill Dear, Clement Glenn, Star Locke, and Farouk Shami. Shami is the CEO of Farouk Systems, and is likely the biggest challenge to White.
