Why Kamala Harris congratulated a Cy-Fair ISD school board winner for breaking a conservative majority
When Lesley Guilmart's cellphone rang Wednesday afternoon, she almost didn't answer the unknown number.
"I’ve been getting interesting calls from folks since last week’s win," said Guilmart, who on Nov. 4 was elected to the Cy-Fair ISD Board of Trustees. "And so I was like, ‘Oh, why not? Let me answer this.' "
None of the calls were as interesting as Wednesday's. On the other line was former Vice President Kamala Harris.
"I was stunned and said, ‘I'm sorry, madam vice president?' " Guilmart said.
