Months after voters elected a new House District 45 state representative, a Dripping Springs area resident has already tossed her hat into the ring for the next race in 2020.
Carrie Isaac, the wife of former District 45 Rep. Jason Isaac, announced Friday she will run for the seat occupied by recently elected State Rep. Erin Zwiener (D-Driftwood).
Isaac’s announcement followed a tweet on April 3 by Texas Election Source citing Isaac had established a campaign committee for an unspecified state house race. Her husband, Jason, who had been the House District 45 state representative from 2013 to 2018, confirmed the news via social media. Jason Isaac did not seek reelection after he unsuccessfully attempted to run for a U.S. House of Representatives seat.
