Category Image Four Northaveners to run for Public Office


Three candidates for State District Judge, and one candidate for State Representative

The filing deadline for public office in the State of Texas was last week, and four Northaveners have filed to run in the upcoming March 7th primary elections.

Judge Dennise Garcia (Democrat) has filed for re-election to 303rd State District (Family) Court. As you may remember, Judge Garcia was elected to this office in November of 2004. She has no primary opponent, but does have an opponent in the general election in November.

Bruce Priddy (Democrat) has filed for the 116th State District (Civil) Court. He faces no primary opponent, but does have an opponent in the Fall general election.

Dawn Estes (Republican) has filed for the 192nd State District (Civil) Court. She faces also faces no primary opposition, but will have an opponent in the Fall general election.

Phillip Shinoda (Democrat) has filed for the office of State Representative, District 114. Phillip is also unopposed in the primary election, but will have an opponent in the November general election.

We are proud that so many Northaveners have chosen to be involved in public service through the seeking of public office. Give the size of our congregation, it's an extraordinary thing to have this many people seeking to serve the public good through elected office.

We wish them all success and good luck during the campaign season.
