Perry Sets Jan. 13 Election to Fill District 13 House Seat

At least four candidates say they’re running for the District 13 House seat opened up as Lois Kolkhorst, R-Brenham, moves

to the Senate. Kolkhorst, who won a special election earlier  this month to fill Comptrollerelect Glenn Hegar’s seat, was

sworn in as District 18’s new senator on Dec. 22. Governor Rick Perry promptly set a special election for Jan. 13 to replace

her in the House.
