Primary Results for the Tri-County Area

photo-1-8

Correction: Our original report inaccurately stated that Fred Granado had secured the judge's seat for Jeff Davis County. He instead secured the Democratic nomination for that race.

The final results are in, and the Tri-County Region is looking at a new set of judges.

Eleazar Cano will be in a runoff with Kathy Killingsworth for the Brewster County Judge seat. Fred Granado has secured the Democratic nomination for Jeff Davis County, and Cinderela Guevara won out over incumbent Paul Hunt in Presidio County.

Follow the link for a full breakdown of the votes from Tuesday's primary election.
