The Brazoria County Democratic Party proudly congratulates Quentin Wiltz, the first Democratic‑endorsed candidate in decades to win the office of Mayor of Pearland, the 15th‑largest city in Texas — and the city’s first Black mayor. This historic victory reflects the strength, vision, and integrity Quentin brings to public service and the trust Pearland voters have placed in him.
We extend our deepest gratitude to the volunteers, contributors, and community members who worked tirelessly to help voters see Quentin for the great leader he is. Your dedication, conversations, and countless hours of effort made this moment possible.
Positive change is never easy. It demands diligent work, active engagement, and shared commitment from all of us — in our neighborhoods, civic spaces, and every election. This victory shows that Pearland and Brazoria County are ready for change, but realizing that promise will take effort, grit, heart, and yes, resources to carry this same energy into November both at the ballot box and in city hall.
We also recognize and thank the many outstanding candidates who stepped forward to serve. Their courage, dedication, and commitment to our community embody the very best of public service, and we are proud to stand with each of them.
We extend our warm congratulations to Toni Carter, Pearland ISD Trustee Position 1; Jason A. Albert, Manvel Councilmember Place 5; Margaret Madariaga, Iowa Colony Councilmember Position 1; Arnetta Murray, Iowa Colony Councilmember Position 2; and Marguette Greene‑Scott, Iowa Colony Councilmember Position 3 on their victories. Their leadership will strengthen our communities in meaningful ways.
Our county also continues to need the passion and service of leaders like Faynetta (Fay) Burrle, T’Liza Kiel, Melanie Oldham, Toshila McLean, and Azania Salazar, and we deeply appreciate each of them for giving their all in this election. Their willingness to step forward reflects a commitment to community that deserves recognition and gratitude.
Together, we celebrate this milestone and recommit ourselves to building a better, fairer future for all.
