UPDATE (August 20, 2019): The post has now been updated with all of the candidates who met the filing deadline on August 19.

We're starting to get an idea of what November elections will look like in Houston, with a mayoral race and all 16 seats on City Council up for grabs.

Councilmembers Brenda Stardig, Jerry Davis, Ellen Cohen, Mike Laster and Jack Christie are term limited, making Districts A, B, C and J, as well as At-Large Position 5, open seats this November. In District F, incumbent Steve Le said he's not seeking reelection. And with Councilmember Dwight Boykins running for mayor, several candidates are running for his seat in District D. Amanda Edwards also will not seek reelection for At-Large Position 4, as she's running for U.S. Senate.

Councilmembers Dave Martin, Greg Travis, Karla Cisneros, Robert Gallegos, Martha Castex-Tatum, Mike Knox, David Robinson, and Michael Kubosh are running again for District E, G, H, I, K, At-Large Position 1, At-Large Position 2, and At-Large Position 3.

Former Harris County Treasurer Orlando Sanchez is jumping into the race for controller, running against incumbent Chris Brown.

Below is the list of candidates who filed for a place on the ballot by the August 19 deadline. Those who didn't make the deadline have until August 23 to file as a write-in candidate.
