Attorney Marc Whyte has the backing of former District 10 council members, while an organized labor group has lined up behind progressive Bryan Martin.
are each running for City Council after long careers in government relations, Solis as an international trade expert for the National Electrical Manufacturers Association and Flores as a lobbyist for oil and gas and technology companies in the Texas Legislature, a former journalist and high school teacher who has worked in the community for more than 40 years.
District 10 candidate Bryan Martin outlines his views on Proposition A during the Northeast Neighborhood Alliance forum.Just one candidate, Martin, told the forum attendees that he supports the proposal. “This is a little bit surreal for me because as you all know, I’ve been here involved in the Northeast neighborhood Alliance for the past seven or eight years, sitting right now where all of you are,” Whyte told attendees at the forum Monday.
“Marc is a conservative, but he’s willing to work with other people and he listens to different points of view,” said Straus. “I really think we could use more people like that and like him in government today.”Although he isn’t a longtime District 10 resident, Martin says his progressive politics are becoming more common in a district that’s attracting young families.
Martin has the support of other progressive candidates who ran in District 10 in 2021, including Johnson, Emily Norwood and Gabrien Gregory.Flores started his career in sales and marketing for book companies. He said he fell into a legislative affairs role by accident while working at Harcourt Brace, but eventually opened his own lobbying business representing a wide variety of interests, from oil and gas to technology companies.
After moving on from lobbying several years ago, Flores now works for a San Antonio-based nonprofit that provides housing to veterans. He also sits on the board of the Texas Association of Mexican American Chambers of Commerce. Despite his very technical background, “working with regulators around the world, working with other companies, working in a trade association, it’s all about your people skills,” said Tim Duffy, whose industrial automation committee is a NEMA member and worked closely with Solis.
