The time has come to begin the 2022 Freestone County Republican Primary. Applications for a place on the ballot can be submitted from November 13, Saturday, until 6:00PM on December 13th, a Monday. The form must be notarized and have a check or money order attached. The applications can be dropped off at my office, Fairfield Veterinary Hospital, 1501 West US 84, Fairfield, during business hours. I will be in my office until 6:00 PM on December 13th for last minute applicants. Call my house, 903 389 6244 and leave a message if you wish to deliver the application directly to me.

The Freestone County Commissioners have completed Commissioner redistricting. The changes should enable the commissioners to more effectively maintain our roads and thus get more efficient use of our tax money. This will also mean some changes in voting precinct locations. The new voting machines and electronic poll books will make it easier to vote but harder to cheat.

There are pending lawsuits on the Texas redistricting as usual. Hopefully they will be resolved quickly and will not change the election dates.

The Republican Primary will be on March 1, 2022.

I always need more help at the polls and would appreciate an email or phone call if you are interested.
