On May 24, voters in Kendall County, as well as Gillespie, Blanco and Burnet counties and the far western part of Travis County, will pick between the two Republican runoff candidates to see who will represent that side of the ballot in November and seek to become the new Texas House District 19 representative.
In the March primary, Ellen Troxclair earned the most votes overall and in Kendall County. Her 12,324 total votes were 38.25 percent of those cast. In Kendall County, she earned 2,937 votes, or 37.74 percent. Closely behind was Justin Berry, who was picked on 11,395 ballots overall for 35.37 percent. In Kendall County, he received 31.62 percent of the vote, or 2,461 ballots. There were two other candidates.
The winner will square off against Democrat Pam Baggett, and that winner in 2023 will replace current state Rep. Kyle Biedermann, who decided not to seek another term. Early voting got underway Monday and continues through Friday this week. On Election Day, polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
