TTH Endorsements & TURF – 2022 General Election Voter Guide

TURF honoredTexans Uniting for Reform & Freedom (TURF) compiled this Voter Guide to gauge candidates’ positions on toll roads, transportation policy (including accountability and transparency), and property rights. Based on each candidate’s answers to our survey, they received a grade.

NOTE: This guide includes contested races (so those with no opponent do not appear in this guide).*It also includes candidates who returned our survey in writing (filled out by the candidate him or herself). You can’t trust what they tell you until they’re willing to put it in writing (and even then we have trouble holding them to it!). Since so many candidates never fill out our survey, we also did our own research on some of these key races and also provide a ‘recommended list,’ not to be confused with Texans for Toll-free Highways’ actual endorsements based on its findings (NOT based on commitments made by the candidates in writing). So be forewarned, those candidates are considered the best option, but in no way implies they’ve signed onto our legislative agenda. The below candidates will appear on the General Election Ballot.

See the 2021 Texas TURF Report Card for the grade of every incumbent state legislator.

Brazos County
Commissioner, Precinct 4 –
Timothy Delasandro– A+


Proposition B –
NO (This would increase drivers’ vehicle registration fee by $10 and give it to the Regional Mobility Authority, which is a toll entity. If you don’t want toll roads in Brazos County, vote ‘No’ on this or you’ll have a new toll bureaucracy that has eternal life through this vehicle registration fee hike whether or not they ever collect enough tolls to stay afloat!)
