AUSTIN, Texas — View full election results here.
Travis County
For the first time, Texans living in counties with a population of 75,000 or more elected three people to their appraisal district board of directors. This is a result of the changes Texas lawmakers made to the tax code with Senate Bill 2, which was passed in the second special session of the 88th Texas Legislature. An appraisal district board of directors oversees the operations of the appraisal district, which is responsible for appraising property for property taxes.
Former Austin City Councilmember and director of the Travis County Taxpayers Union Don Zimmerman faced off against Jett Hanna, a member of the Texas Supreme County Professional Ethics Committee. Hannah won the race with 69% of the vote.
Travis County GOP Chairman Matt Mackowiak ran for Place 2, along with attorney Shenghao “Daniel” Wang and Jonathan Patschke, who is the treasurer of the Libertarian Party of Travis County. Wang won the race with 67% of the vote.
Dick Lavine, a board member of Progress Texas and and the senior financial analyst of Every Texan, faced Bill May in the race for Place 3. Lavine won the race with 73% of the vote.
