          I’m not joking

          Seventy-three votes separated Uvalde County Sheriff Ruben Nolasco and challenger Otto Arnim in the Republican Party primary runoff on May 28, 2024. Voters chose the incumbent sheriff for a likely second term with 1,241 votes compared to Arnim’s 1,168. Nolasco won 51.52 percent of the vote, with 2,729 of the more than 17,000 registered voters casting a ballot.

          The Uvalde County Democratic Party did not field a candidate for sheriff, unless a write-in candidate files for the post this summer, Nolasco does not have a challenger en route to reelection in November.
