Five district court judges in Houston have been ousted from their benches by female challengers in the Democratic Primary election.

Rather than a partisan sweep, it's a different sort of sweep: Males being voted out of office as voters picked women to become candidates in the November general election.

Voters picked female candidates who were challenging incumbent Houston judges Larry Weiman, Randy Roll, Daryl Moore, Steven Kirkland and George Powell.

Here are the rest of the election results for Harris County benches.
