Former Tarrant County Republican Party Chairman Tim O'Hare says he's running for Tarrant County Judge next year.
In making his announcement, O'Hare says "people should vote for me because they will always know where I stand."
In his career as a lawyer, head of the Tarrant County GOP, Farmers Branch mayor and city councilman, O'Hare has created a reputation for conservative stands on social issues like mandatory face masks and teaching Critical Race Theory in schools.
He says "we are at a time in our nation's history, where wrong is right, right is wrong, up is down and down is up. We need people who will stand up for what is right and who will tell the truth and tell it like it is."
It's not clear if County Judge Glenn Whitley, also a Republican, plans to run again.
Whitley's role has been high-profile over the past year as Tarrant County navigated the obstacles created by the Coronavirus. Whitley has been in office since 2007.
