Here are the candidates running in Williamson County races in 2026

Williamson County voters in the March Republican primary will see three candidates for Williamson County Precinct 2 commissioner on the ballot: Rupal Chaudhari, Jeff Mayes and David McDonald.

Diving in deeper: No candidates will appear on the Democratic ballot for the Precinct 2 seat. This means the winner of the Republican contest in March will run unopposed in November.

What else?: Precinct 4 commissioner Russ Boles will run uncontested in the Republican primary for his seat, and Harmon Rhea will run uncontested in the Democratic primary for Precinct 4.

County Judge Steve Snell will run uncontested in the Republican primary. Snell was appointed in March after former County Judge Bill Gravel resigned to accept a position in President Donald Trump’s administration.

Heather Jefts is the only candidate for county judge in the Democratic primary. She served on Cedar Park City Council until October, when she resigned to run for Commissioners Court. Jefts is a small-business owner, according to her campaign website.

Early voting will run Feb. 17-27, and election day is March 3.
