Special Election In Texas’ 4th Congressional District

Dallas (WBAP/KLIF) – The Republican Party in northeast Texas is conducting a very special election. About 150 county and precinct chairs who live in Texas’ 4th Congressional District are selecting a replacement for Congressman John Ratcliffe who resigned his seat in the U.S. House to become President Trump’s Director of National Intelligence. It is not a public election, but is limited to those 150 Republican Party officials. The 4th Congressional District is one of the most Republican in the state, so whomever they elect likely will be elected on his or her own in November.
