Glen WhitleyCounty Commissioner Glen Whitley, Brian Wayne Salvant, and Joyce Stevens have filed to run in the Republican primary for Tarrant County Judge. The DallasBlog was first to report that Tom Vandergriff would not run for re-election.
Other primaries of note in Tarrant County include a number of state representative races. Pat Carlson, former Tarrant Count GOP chairman, leads a field of four competing for the seat being vacated by Rep. Bob Griggs in District 91. Kent Grusendorf and Diane Patrick face off in Arlington while Chris Hatley is challenging Charlie Geren in a Ft. Worth district. Since Tarrant County is one of the strongest Republican counties in Texas, the elections there likely will be decided in the Republican primary.
