KOLKHORST/SCHUBERT RUNNING UNOPPOSED IN PRIMARY

  

State Senator Lois W. Kolkhorst will run unopposed for her seat, while local State Representative Leighton Schubert will have an opponent in the November general election.

At the Monday deadline to file for the primaries, Kolkhorst did not draw an opponent in the District-18 State Senate race.  No Democrats have filed for the post, providing no opponent for Kolkhorst in November’s General Election.

Meanwhile, the man who ran against Kolkhorst in the special election for State Senate a year ago, Gary Gates, is one of four Republicans running for Railroad Commissioner.

Schubert, the District-13 Incumbent did not draw an opponent for the March first primary, but will face Fayette County Democrat Cecil Webster in November.

Webster is running unopposed in the Democrat Primary.

In the race for the U.S. Congressional District-10 seat, incumbent Michael McCaul is running unopposed in the primary.  Two Democrats, Scot Gallaher and Tawana Cadien are vying for their party’s nod to face McCaul in November.
