AUSTIN, TX – Today was Election Day for the Special Election in Texas House District 145. Republican Candidate Martha Fierro came just a few votes short of making the runoff against Democrat candidates. Republican Party of Texas Chairman James Dickey commented:

“Congratulations to Martha Fierro on her run for the Texas House, though she came just a few votes short of advancing to the runoff. Her hard work and dedication to the constituents she hoped to represent was evident, yet again. She would have made a great State Representative and an outspoken conservative voice in the Texas House on behalf of her constituents.

“As we look to 2020, Republicans should be challenging Democrats in every race across the state. We have a message that resonates with all who hear it – we fight for lower taxes, quality education, and a booming economy so that all may succeed. We truly appreciate Martha stepping up and not just throwing her name in the race, but working hard to advance Republican values.”
