Primary runoff elections arrive Tuesday
Election day is May 24 for the Texas Party Primary runoffs with polls open 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
There will be four locations where votes may be cast: Montague County Annex Community Room, Saint Jo Civic Center, Nocona Community Center and Bowie Bible Baptist.
As a reminder, if you voted in the March primaries, you must vote in that same party runoff. If you did not vote in March you can cast a ballot in either party runoff.
The Democratic Primary ballot has four places for voters to consider. Lieutenant Governor, Mike Collier and Michelle Beckley; Attorney General, Joe Jaworski and Rochelle Mercedes Garza; comptroller of public accounts, Angel Luis Vega and Janet T. Dudding and commissioner of the general land office, Jay Kleberg and Sandragrace Martinez.
On the Republican ballot, three places will be decided. Attorney General, George P. Bush and Ken Paxton (incumbent); commissioner of the general land office, Dawn Buckingham and Tim Westley and railroad commissioner Wayne Christian (incumbent) and Sarah Stogner.
Winners of the respective party primaries will face off in the November general elections.
The cast and crew of Gold-Burg High School’s state-bound one-act play “Interview,” will present a public show at 4 p.m. on May 5 in the Bowie Junior High Auditorium.
Admission is $5 and there will be a bake sale to raise funds for travel and other OAP expenses. The show is directed by Linda Fitzner.
The group will travel to Austin to perform on May 13 for the state title. This is the school’s first time to take a play to the state contest.

Voters in Bowie and Forestburg Independent School Districts will have their say Saturday as both entities offer up bond issues to improve infrastructure.
Early voting came to an end on Tuesday with a total of 1,230 people casting their ballots.
On election day the polls will be open 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. at three locations: Bowie Senior Citizens Center, Forestburg ISD Library and Sunset City Hall. Voters can cast their ballots at any of these locations due to countywide voting.
