A former Trump campaign official has won a tight primary fight and will now serve as the representative of a deep-red Texas House district.
Republican Katrina Pierson, who served as the spokesperson for former President Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign, defeated incumbent state Rep. Justin Holland in Tuesday's primary runoff for Texas' 33rd House District, and is the presumptive winner of November's general election since no Democrat candidate is standing in the race.

Texas House
Ring less..... Is she married, divorced or otherwise?
Don’t know. Maybe reach out to her and ask?
Asking for a friend?...

Katrina has a national profile. Texas House is small potatoes/minor leagues. A challenger to Cornyn-’26? He’s old and she’s easy on the eyes-those things count.

Been gone from Texas too long to give a hoot....

That is just BS. A lot of good legislation was killed when that prick teamed up with the rats to kill it.
Why not great, in your opinion?
Thanks for the link. I see why caution is advised. Good that she’s in a state legislature to gain more savvy, instead of the US House at this time.
That said, I wouldn’t have had a problem voting for her if I was in her district.
Same. It takes time. I always liked her gutsiness when he was a complete outsider elbowing his way in. No apologies! More tact and tactical skill will come with this new experience.
