Overview
Commissioner Precinct 1 in Tarrant County is a diverse district that includes both traditional minority neighborhoods plus newer neighborhoods that are growing in both population and diversity. For the first time in over two decades, Precinct 1 will be represented by a new person. Current Commissioner Roy Brooks will leave a legacy of effective, forward thinking, families first advocacy that has resulted in improved healthcare, enhanced public safety, and more good jobs.
Commissioners Precinct 1 is a safe Democratic district, so the Democratic nominee is the almost certain new commissioner. Commissioner Brooks has made his choice crystal clear. He strongly backs Roderick Miles over Kathleen Hicks.
