Five Tarrant County-area congressional races are up for grabs in the March 3 primary, including one sought by the granddaughter of Opal Lee.
Four incumbents are seeking reelection, including longtime U.S. Rep. Roger Williams, who lives in the Weatherford area, and is unopposed in the Republican primary for U.S. House District 25.
The two candidates seeking the Democratic nomination are William Marks, a Navy veteran and community manager at Meta for the western U.S., and Dione Sims, who has worked with her grandmother to organize the National Juneteenth Museum in Fort Worth.
The district stretches west from Tarrant County to Callahan County. The bulk of what was formerly part of District 33 in Tarrant now falls under District 25 after Texas’ redistricting efforts last summer.
The county did have seven representatives in the U.S. House whose districts included parts of Tarrant. After Texas’ redistricting, two seats were drawn out of the county.
They were District 33, which was held by Fort Worth Democrat Marc Veasey who is not seeking reelection, and District 26, in which Republican Brandon Gill is seeking another term.
