Some Tarrin County Republicans passed over for delegate spots at the Texas GOP convention are pushing back hard against claims they backed Democrats. This all stems from Senate District 9, a usually rock-solid red area in Northern and Western Tarrin County that flipped blue on January 31st. There, Democrats' hailer remit beat Republican laywombsgans in a runoff election. These folks mostly opposed the plans to split the Keller School District, and many had backed former South Lake Mayor John Huffman in an earlier special, election for a state Senate seat. Z. Wilcox, one of them, sued the Tarrin County GOP chair over ballot issues in her own house race but still worked to elect other Republicans like. County judge Tim O'Hare, Wilcox and others like her say they never supported remin, in fact, they cast blank ballots in that runoff. Wilcox celebrated with her husband after voting, posting about it online, and insists the party should protect free speech. Another, brewer, runs a nonpartisan Facebook page on Keller Schools, and echoes the same

blank ballots, no Democrat love. Out of 95,179 ballots cast, just 58 came back, blank, perturrent county elections. Senate District 9 Chair, Jim Sutton, says he didn't dig into the claims or fact-check delegates, he just made sure everyone got heard on adding names. To the state list. Those are high as the convention kicks off June 11th through 13th in Houston with these snubs highlighting cracks in what was once.
