The surprise winner of a Texas election has been criticized for misleading the mainly black constituents into believing he was African American.
Dave Wilson, a white Republican and anti-gay activist, beat Houston's 24-year incumbent Bruce Austin in what has been described as a 'racially tinged campaign'.
Mr Wilson won with a margin of 26 after he campaigned using flyers featuring African Americans and the message 'Vote for our neighbor Dave Wilson'.
'I'd always said it was a long shot. I didn't expect to win,' the former fringe candidate told KHOU.
His flyers, designed using pictures he had found on the internet, also claimed he had been endorsed by Ron Wilson for the Houston community college seat.
Many in the area could have been led to believe the endorsement was from the former African-American state representative but the small print stated the Ron Wilson in question was the candidate's cousin.
'He's a nice cousin,' Mr Wilson told KHOU as he held back a laugh. 'We played baseball in high school together. And he's endorsed me.'

Only white Hollywood liberals are allowed to pretend they are black.
The headline tries to make it sound like the nearly all black constituents would be against this candidate being anti-gay just because the black constituents are Democrats, but black people tend to be far more anti-gay than white people.
We are all African Americans now. Lucy proves it.
maybe that gives a clue how ueducated voters vote....they had no idea of what their candidate looked like nor nis race....do the world a favor....DON’T VOTE!!
What does De Balssio think of this?
As long as we have a prez who lied and misled his way to the White House, no problem with this. The guy better watch his back, though.
Nailed that one, did you.
Hahahahahahahaha! Good for him. Further proof the EBT low information voters haven’t a clue. LOL, even Sheila couldn’t be bothered to find out he was white and that makes my day.
Dave Wilson - you magnificent bastard
Awesome
Fearless
What’s the problem? He only pretended to be black while other politicians pretended to serve us. He could hardly be worse than what we already have.
Did he run on a platform of “Where da white women at?” A sure winner in Houston.
Loved Clevon Little and “Blazing Saddles”. The greatest satire film on racism and ignorance ever made.
You have worked for him and say he is solid and a good guy! His term is 6 years! So he has time to do good things.
