 Sheila Jackson Lee got destroyed in the Houston mayoral race by her Democrat opponent, Texas state Senator John Whitmire.

Here’s the news from NBC News:
Texas state Sen. John Whitmire will be Houston’s next mayor, NBC News projects.
Whitmire defeated Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, a fellow Democrat, in a runoff election Saturday to lead the fourth-largest city by population in the U.S.
The two advanced from a Nov. 7 election featuring 18 candidates, when Whitmire ran 9 percentage points ahead of Jackson Lee.
Whitmire also outraised Jackson Lee and outspent her on the airwaves, according to AdImpact. Since the November election, Whitmire spent over $2 million on ads, while Jackson Lee spent just over $60,000.
Here’s the election results, where Whitmore won by nearly 30 points. Ouch.
