People who follow local politics closely will remember that Governor Perry appointed Reece Rondon of Bellaire to the 334th District of Texas back in 2003. Sharon McCally entered the GOP primary in 2004 and beat him. She went on to win the general election.

Judge Rondon e-mailed today to announce that he had been appointed by Governor Perry to the 234th District Court. It wasn’t in the Chronicle, so I guess this is a local story they missed. Here’s the Governor’s press release and here’s an AP story via a Harlingen TV station.

Congratulations to Judge Rondon.
