St Rep Mike Krusee Announces he Will Not Seek Re-Election

This is important news for people in Williamson County. For 16 years, Round Rock, Cedar Park, and Taylor have been represented by Mike Krusee. Even though Rep Krusee has not been the most popular State Rep over the last 4 years due to the construction of the toll ways, he has worked hard on transportation and education issues that are important to Williamson County.

As of this morning, no Republicans have announced their intention to fill the void for this State Rep seat. This will be a critical race as Travis County Democrats and tax-and-spend Republicans both desire this seat, so it is not a guarantee that this seat will remain in the hands of a conservative Republican. This race will be pivotal in determining the transportation strategy for the Central Texas area as well as environmental and education issues for the region.

Stay tuned for the list of candidates who will file for this seat.
