Texans 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 prioritized contested primary races (those with an opponent).* It also only includes candidates who returned our survey in writing (filled out by the candidate themselves). If you do not see a candidate here, they did NOT return our candidate survey in writing. Reach out to them and ask them why and what their positions are on toll roads in writing.
Do NOT cast your vote until you know where the candidate stands on tolls.
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!). Have them contact us immediately.
The below candidates will appear on the GOP Primary Ballot. Not a single Democrat returned our candidate survey.
See the 2025 Texas TURF Report Card for the grade of every incumbent state legislator.
