Applications Submitted for the 2018 Democratic Primary in Dallas County

Monday, December 18:

Eland J. Sigler for Sheriff

FILING HAS NOW ENDED FOR THE 2018 PRIMARY

These are the candidates who have submitted applications to be on the ballot in the 2018 Democratic Primary in Dallas County. Note that these are UNOFFICIAL until the candidate's name is listed on the Secretary of State's website list of filings. You can find the link for Dallas County candidates at https://webservices.sos.state.tx.us/candidate-filing/cf-report.aspx The SOS list also includes those who filed in Austin because they are running statewide or in districts which cross county lines. Candidates posted on the SOS site are still potentially subject to challenge or removal for ineligibility (such as finding their address was in the wrong district after all) or inadequacy of their petitions.

The titles of the offices listed at the SOS site do not seem to be a perfect match for the titles which seem to be used in Dallas County. If you think their list has you in the wrong place, call Bill at the DCDP office 214-821-8331 and we'll try to reconcile them.

The applicants below are posted in reverse order of filing under each date. For example, Judge Patterson filed first on November 11 and is at the bottom on that date here. This way you can check back again on the same day and quickly see the latest update. If you want to see them together by offices, see http://dallasdemocrats.org/elections/candidates2018.html
