Sen. Springer won’t run for SB-30, Congressman Pat Fallon files for that race
National, state and county party primary filing began on Nov. 11 and will continue through Dec. 11.
Party primary elections will take place in March 2024 and those winners will then face off in the November general election.
The following county positions will be up for election in 2024: 97th District Judge and District Attorney, county attorney, sheriff, precincts one and three county commissioners, precincts one and two constables, county tax assessor and Democratic Party Chair.
Mark Neese is chairman of the county Republican Party and there is no organized Democratic Party with a chairman. Those wishing to run in the Republican primaries file with Neese and those wishing to run ad Democrats file with the state party.
As filing opened Saturday there already was a big shake-up at the state level where longtime north Texas leader Drew Springer announced he would not run for the District 30 Texas Senate seat and Pat Fallon said he would give up his congressional seat to run for his old Texas Senate post.
