Galloway narrowly made the deadline to file for a spot on the ballot, filing on March 10, the final day to do so.
Galloway served as the District 4 representative from 1995 to 1999, serving in both the 74th and 75th Texas Legislatures. Galloway also opposed Tommy Williams for District 4 seat in 2012, but was defeated in the primary election.
"I'm running for the same reason I have always run for this seat: to fight for conservative, free market values in the Texas legislature," Galloway said. "Too often, legislators go to Austin to be somebody rather than to do something. Voters in this district deserve someone who will not just vote conservatively but actively work toward conservative goals, something of which I have a proven record."
Galloway became the first Republican to hold the District 4 seat in 100 years when he defeated Carl Parker in 1994.
