休斯敦市长选战打开序幕

二百多万居住在大休斯敦地区之选民, 将从十月二十三日起举行初选投票。市民们可以在十一月七日大选日之前先行投下自己神圣之一票，来决定谁将领导这个全美第四大城市。

近二十年来，原本是从以世界能源之都称着的城市有了巨大之变化，整个城市不再只是依赖石油而改变多元化之工商业，并有大量移民移居於此。

美南新闻是成长在这𠆤城市而且见证了它的成长 ,我们的命运也紧繫着这块土地 ,和这片天空共同呼吸。因此把我们大家的青春奉献给这个城市，这裡更是我们的家园。

这次市长选举参加人数之多非常罕见，其中包括各族裔代表，有白人、非裔、拉丁裔、亚裔，他们都希望将来领导这𠆤多元化之城市。

市政问题是非常复杂而多元化，从警政消防、治安、基建教育文化、观光交通住房商业等都是市长要推动管理之事项。

我们期盼能够选出一位有魄力远见之领导，才是我们大家之福气。

就在本週六下午二时，州参议员惠特迈将再度来到美南电视台会见国际社区之代表们，再次表达他竞选成功之决心。

Houston's Mayoral Election Kicks Off Soon

More than two million qualified voters living in Greater Houston will hold an early voting on October 23. We can cast our votes before Election Day on Nov. 7th to decide who will lead the fourth largest city in America.

Over the last twenty years there have been great changes from the city known as, "The Energy Capital Of The World." The city no longer just relies on energy and now includes many diversified industries with commerce from a wide range of business sectors and includes a large workforce of immigrants who have migrated here.

Southern News Group grew up in this great city and witnessed its growth. Our fate also is closely linked to this land and sky. We have devoted our lives to this city and this is our home.

Municipal issues of the city are very complex and diversified. From the police, firefighters, public safety, infrastructure, education, culture, tourism, transportation, housing and commerce, etc., are all matters that a new mayor will need to promote and manage.

We are looking forward to electing a bold and far-sighted leader which will be a blessing to all of us.

At 2:00 pm this Saturday, State Senator John Whitmire will come to the STV television studio again to meet with representatives of the international community, and once again will express his determination to be a good, strong and effective mayor for the City of Houston.
