A trustee business session was held shortly after a recent candidate forum and some decisions were made that the TABA Home PAC trustees have asked us to make our members aware of.
Though state races abound this election cycle (highlighted by the race for Governor), most Bell County races are uncontested. However, the two county races that are contested during the primary caught the attention of our trustees.
With due consideration given about getting involved in a primary election, the trustees opted to meet with candidates for Justice of the Peace (Lee Lingo and incumbent Ted Duffield interviewed--no democratic candidate), and County Court at Law #3 (R-Rebecca DePew and R-Mary Black Pearson interviewed, D-Tyfanny Howard did not respond in time to be interviewed).
A decision was made to support Ted Duffield in his race for Justice of the Peace (Belton) and Rebecca DePew in her race for County Court at Law #3. Please support these candidates at the polls during either the early voting, which runs from February 16th to the 26th, or on primary election day, March 2nd.
