 Updated on Friday, Apr 17, 2026

Welcome to the web site for the Republican party Precinct 2522!  (Thanks to Jim Sutton for providing the software to run the site!)

This site provides a plethora of information regarding our current elected officials, past results, and upcoming elections.  Visit this site regularly for information regarding upcoming elections, candidate links, and endorsements.  The real goal for this site is to increase Republican voter turnout by providing information the voter can use to make wise choices in our elections.

About the Precinct Chair - I am recently retired from 43 years in the defense industry.  My wife and I are members of Christ Chapel Bible Church in Fort Worth and enjoy playing with our six grandchildren.  We live in the precinct (obviously) and are interested in stopping the spread of the radical move to the left in our country today and restoring conservative, Christian values in our society.  If you would like to help out, or contact me for any other reason, you can email me at TarrantGop2522@Yahoo.com.

You can find our current elected officials by clicking on Who Represents Me above.  To see information about upcoming elections, click Elections on the upper right, then Election Information.  There is information about candidates and, if you click Current Election, you can see who is running for each office.

It's a Primary Runoff Election
 Updated on Saturday, May 9, 2026

I know you're tired of all of the elections lately, but we've got one more coming up, and it's very important.  There are only four races, so it won't take long to vote.  Early voting is short, only running from May 18-22, and then Election Day is May 26th.  Here is a sample ballot. 

Early Voting locations nearby are:

ACTIV Center, 2061 W Green Oaks Boulevard

South Service Center, 1100 SW Green Oaks Boulevard

On Election Day, you'll also be able to vote at these locations:

Little Elementary School, 3721 Little Road

Dover Fellowship Hall, 208 Municipal Drive, Kennedale

Here are my recommendations:

US Senator - This is the key race.  It's incumbent John Cornyn vs. Ken Paxton.  Paxton is the clear conservative in this race, while Cornyn has let conservatives down on many occasions over his 20 years in the Senate.  My Choice: Ken Paxton.

Attorney General - This is another key race, and it comes down to wishy-washy Chip Roy vs. solid conservative Christian Mayes Middleton.  While he did do some good in the US House, he often let conservatives down.  Middleton has been a reliable conservative in the Texas Senate and brings solid credentials to the office.  My Choice: Mayes Middleton.

Railroad Commissioner - This race features incumbent Jim Wright vs. Bo French.  French is a former Tarrant County Republican Chair, and is known for his strong conservative views and raising the danger of a spreading Muslim influence.  My Choice: Bo French.

Judge, Court of Criminal Appeals, Place 3 - This race pits Alison Fox vs. Thomas Smith.  Smith is the strong conservative.  Remember, this is essentially the Supreme Court of Texas, so it is very important.  My Choice: Thomas Smith.

Primary Results
 Updated on Saturday, May 9, 2026

Well, the Primaries are finished for now, but in true fashion, we’ll have some runoffs coming up in May, as well as local elections (School Board and City Council).  The elections never seem to stop!

So how did the Primary turn out?  Not too badly, but with some surprises.  I’ve shown the major races that we focused on with the top finishers in each.  The Vote is the official result and Our Precinct is how we voted as a precinct.  My recommendations are in bold.  Remember, a candidate must have over 50% to win, so in some cases the top two finishers will go to a runoff.  Let’s look:

So my recommendations all won or are headed to a runoff except for the 231^st Family District Judge.

It is important that we remember my motto: The worst Republican is better than the best Democrat.  Maybe our candidate didn’t win in the Primary, but we need to unite now to defeat the Democrat!  This is not my candidate or no one; it’s more like a family that can argue and fight with each other but have each other’s back in public.  Republicans stand for traditional, family values.  Democrats support criminal illegal immigrants over US citizens, mutilating children for life and taking them away from their parents if they won’t allow it, allowing men in women’s locker rooms, and allowing men to compete against women in sports.  Right now Democrats in the US Senate are refusing to fund the Department of Homeland Security amid a conflict in Iran even though we have had four terrorist attacks in the past ten days in our own country.  Let’s remain vigilant and energized as we go forward!

New Polical Watch Report
 Updated on Wednesday, Apr 22, 2026

Senate District Convention is Saturday, March 28th
 Updated on Wednesday, Apr 22, 2026

There are  four levels of Republican conventions:

1. Precinct Convention

4. National Convention

The Precinct Convention was held on March 5^th.  The next step is the Senate District Convention, which will be held Saturday, March 28^th at the Arlington First Church of the Nazarene.  In order to participate in this convention, you must have been named a delegate that the Precinct Convention, but you still have a chance to put your name in to attend the State Convention, held in June in Houston.  You must get your application in to the Nominations Committee this week so you can be approved on Saturday.  You can email it to Brenda@HazyAcres.net.

Mid-term Election - March 3rd!
 Updated on Wednesday, Apr 22, 2026

This is a year when we have a mid-term election.  Although we are not voting for president, we do vote for all members of the US House of Representative and a third of the Senate.  In Texas one of our Senators, John Cornyn, is up for re-election.  We also have Texas state elections.  We will vote for all members of the Texas House and about half the Texas Senate seats, as their terms are for four years.  There are many other races of note, including governor, judges, and various other state and local races.  Often it's these state and local office-holders that affect our day-to-day lives more than those in Washington!

These mid-term elections will occur in November, but first, each party must select their candidates for each race in November.  This is done in the Primary election, this year to be held on March 3, 2026.  Many people, even those that are politically minded, skip the primary and only vote in the General Election in November.  This is a mistake.  The choice in a General Election is usually quite clear – as I’m fond of saying, the worst Republican candidate is better than the best Democrat.  But Republican candidates are not the same.  Especially in Texas, many moderates who hold more to Democrat principles than Republican, will run as Republicans because that gives them a better chance to win in November.  So, it’s the Primary, coming up very quickly in March, where we select which Republicans will run in November.  One reason given for not voting in the Primary is that voters don’t know about the candidates.  This is why we have voter guides, other resources, and a Precinct Chair – that’s me!

Use this web site to help you choose which candidates better reflect your values, use the resources provided, and then, most importantly, vote!  Since the turnout is generally lower in the Primary, those that do vote have a much bigger voice in which candidates will run in November.  So, vote!  Talk to your friends and family members.  Encourage those that feel the same way you do to vote as well.  This is a chance for We the People to let our voices be heard.
