Frio County Judge Rochelle Lozano Camacho, one of the high-profile arrests connected to an alleged vote harvesting scandal in Frio County, is running for reelection next year.

A shakeup in the Texas 2026 U.S. Senate race sees Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett entering the Democratic primary after U.S. Rep. Colin Allred withdrew. Crockett will face State Rep. James Talarico, while incumbent Republican Sen. John Cornyn faces a tough primary against Attorney General Ken Paxton and Rep. Wesley Hunt.

Cecilia Castellano, who has been charged in connection with a vote harvesting scandal in Frio County, announced her candidacy to be the state representative for District 80 in 2026.

At least seven individuals thus far have formally announced campaign plans to run for Bexar County’s top prosecutor position.

Former U.S. Rep. Colin Allred said his latest campaign for U.S. Senate is about fighting for ordinary Texans — the working families like the one he grew up in — have had a difficult time making ends meet despite doing everything right.

Before James Talarico entered politics, he was teaching sixth grade language arts at Rhodes Middle School on San Antonio’s West Side — an experience he says continues to shape his views as he campaigns for a seat in the U.S. Senate.
