Congratulations to the winners of yesterday’s Texas Republican Primary Runoff Elections, and thank you to every candidate, voter, election worker, volunteer, and campaign team who participated in the process.
Running for office is not easy, nor is the work that goes into supporting campaigns and running elections. Public service matters, and everyone who stepped up and participated deserves our appreciation and respect.
