Openly lesbian Houston comptroller Annise Parker, 52, has announced that she will run for mayor. If successful, Parker will become the first openly gay mayor of a top ten U.S. city.
Parker is considered one of the early frontrunners to replace Houston Mayor Bill White, who’s term limited and plans to run as a Democrat for U.S. Senate in 2010. In an interview with Dallas Voice on Friday, Jan. 30, Parker said while it’s critical for the LGBT community to be active and represented in electoral politics, making history isn’t the motive behind her campaign.
