‘Something's wrong': Tarrant Republicans demand change in party leadership

An open letter from several Tarrant County Republicans demands new leadership at the helm of the county party after voters swept Democrats into office in last week’s midterm. Democrats won all of the statewide and countywide races in Tarrant County, deserting its title of the largest red county in the nation. The letter says Tarrant County voters still believe in conservative policies but made it clear they were done with the Republican Party taking them for granted. Organized by former Southlake Mayor John Huffman, the letter was signed by 16 Republicans , most of whom have served as mayors, representatives, school board members and precinct chairs. Other Republicans who believe in the sentiments are welcome to sign on too, Huffman said. Notably missing from the list are Tarrant County Judge Tim O’Hare and Fort Worth Mayor Mattie Parker. Neither responded to the Star-Telegram’s requests for comment. By electing Democrats from top to bottom, voters said they were not pleased with the Republicans’ performance in office, commitment to kitchen table issues and divisive party culture. “When a lifelong Republican does not feel welcome in their own party, because I fought for my school district, something’s wrong there,” said co-signer Chelsea Kelly,

Democrats' Tarrant sweep triggers GOP dissatisfaction. Here's what to know

Texas voters elected Democrats to every statewide office in the Nov. 3 midterm, ending more than three decades of Republican dominance in the Lone Star State. The sweep also flipped Tarrant County blue and has triggered public dissatisfaction inside the county GOP. Here are key takeaways: Democrat James Talarico defeated Attorney General Ken Paxton for U.S. Senate, Gina Hinojosa beat Gov. Greg Abbott, and Vikki Goodwin ousted Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick in what one political scientist called “a demolition” of Republican incumbents . Democrats also captured the railroad commissioner’s seat and several legislative races, leaving GOP control of the Texas Legislature in flux. Sixteen Tarrant County Republicans, organized by former Southlake Mayor John Huffman, signed an open letter demanding new county party leadership after Democrats swept every statewide and countywide race. Signatories blame Tarrant County GOP Chair Tim Davis, elected in November 2025, for a divisive culture that ostracized Republicans who broke with leadership. The summary points above were compiled with the help of AI tools and edited by journalists. The source reporting referenced above was written and edited entirely by journalists.

A 37-year playoff win drought was on the line. White Settlement Brewer held a 3-point lead at the half over rival Azle. But the Bears thoroughly dominated the second half en route to a 31-7 victory in the Class 5A Division I bi-district round Thursday at Brewer Bear Stadium.
