Long-time Texas state Senator Jeff Wentworth has one more hurdle to cross on the way to the November election - a July 31 runoff against one of his primary challenger, Dr. Donna Campbell.
In one of the tightest races from Tuesday night, Wentworth led Campbell and former Texas Railroad Commissioner Elizabeth Ames Jones with just under 36% of the vote, compared to Campbell's 33% and Jones' 30%, in the battle for the District 25 seat.
In order to avoid a runoff, candidates must collect a majority-plus-one portion of the vote.
