When Travis County Judge Sarah Eckhardt announced in March that she would resign from her job as the leader of the Commissioners Court in order to run for Senate District 14, it set in motion a special election process that will allow Travis County Democratic precinct chairs to elect our next Travis County Judge.

According to Cindy Flint, Executive Director of the Travis County Democratic Party, there are 136 precinct chairs who are eligible to vote to select the next Democratic County Judge Candidate who essentially will run unopposed this November.

Since there is no Republican candidate running for County Judge, the winner of this quirky election process by precinct chairs will essentially serve as our next Travis County Judge for the remaining unexpired term left by Eckhardt, which ends in 2022.

Join us for our next HABLA Plática as we meet the three Democrats seeking to have their names placed as our next Travis County Judge:

- Andy Brown, Attorney, Andy Brown & Associates, PLLC
- Dyana Limon-Mercado, Travis County Democratic Party Chair
- Jeff Travillion, Commissioner, Travis County, Pct. 1

Our Plática will be moderated by Paul Saldaña, Co-Founder of HABLA.
