TX: Why Kamala Harris congratulated a Cy-Fair ISD school board winner for breaking a conservative majority [View all]

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.
