Unofficial early voting results released May 24 indicate Dr. Dawn Buckingham is leading the primary runoff election for the Republican nomination for the state Senate District 24 seat with 51.07 percent of the vote, or 190 votes, in the entire district, which covers the counties of Bandera, Bell, Blanco, Brown, Burnet, Callahan, Comanche, Coryell, Gillespie, Hamilton, Kerr, Lampasas, Llano, Mills and San Saba as well as parts of Taylor and Travis counties. Candidate Susan King has 48.92 percent of the vote, or 182 votes, in the entire district.

Candidate Virginia “Jennie Lou” Leeder ran unopposed for the Democratic nomination for the District 24 seat. The winner of the May 24 Republican runoff will face Leeder in the November general election.

The seat was vacated by former Sen. Troy Fraser, R-Horseshoe Bay.

During a Jan. 20 forum conducted by the Central Texas Water Coalition, Buckingham, an ophthalmologist and former Lake Travis ISD school board member, said she wanted to “decrease the footprint of government we feel in our everyday lives.”

At the same forum, King, a nurse and House District 71 representative from Abilene, said the problem with District 24 “is the collaboration between municipal needs, industry [needs] and rural [needs].”

All results are unofficial until canvassed.
