After reviewing 114 applications, Williamson County has hired a new elections administrator.

The county’s elections commission selected Chris Davis for the position during its Feb. 26 meeting. The position became vacant in November, after Jason Barnett resigned. Kay Eastes was named interim elections administrator Nov. 18. Davis is a graduate of Sam Houston State University and served as the Cameron County elections administrator. “I’m humbled by the opportunity to serve Williamson County in this capacity and will do my best to make the county, its voters, and its entities proud,” Davis said in a statement. He will begin working with the county April 13.
