annise can be elected mayor of houston

but she can't marry or enjoy the same legal rights as those she governs.

annise danette parker was elected mayor of houston on saturday, winning her seventh consecutive city election and becoming both the first contender in a generation to defeat the hand-picked candidate of houston's business establishment and the first openly gay person to lead a major u.s.. city. - houston chronicle

I don't understand...
Why can she not marry the man of her choice?
She should get herself a lawyer right away. Winning a discrimination suit like this would mean she'd never have to run for office again!
