The vacant Texas House seat representing nearly all of Brazos County has drawn interest from its first Democratic Party candidate.
College Station businessowner Judy LeUnes, who has been in the public eye as President of the Brazos Animal Shelter board, has created a Facebook page (Elect Judy LeUnes).
Three Republican Party hopefuls have made formal announcements; Rebecca Boenigk, John Raney, and Bob Yancy.
The filing deadline is September 7th, the Wednesday after Labor Day. Voters in the current 14th district will decide who will fill the unexpired term of Fred Brown, who retired following the end of the Legislature’s special session.
