My statement
Ultimately, the voters will consider this mistake against a record of giving timely jury trials to inmates waiting in jail/on bond and victims waiting to be heard--an efficient and working court.
Vs. a person who has not practiced in this area in many years.

Presiding with energy and integrity
Judge Tanner works every day to inspire confidence in our legal system.
- He is fair.
- He runs an efficient, open court that resolves Hays County's disputes now, not years later.
- He takes care of the people who come before him—jurors, plaintiffs, defendants, and attorneys.
Judge Tanner's commitment to our courts arises from unique experience:
- Handled over 150 jury trials as an advocate or judge.
- Served Texas as a determined but fair prosecutor (criminal law).
- Represented the private sector for plaintiffs and defendants (civil law).
Judge Tanner also brings a unique perspective to the bench, gained from a background that includes:
- Teaching Texas State and UT Law students as an adjunct professor.
- Studying in Colombia as a Fulbright Scholar.
- Working on justice reform and transparency projects to root out corruption in Mexico, Colombia, and Peru.
All together, Judge Tanner gives Hays County an experienced, trustworthy, hard-working judge to preserve our courts.
Let's keep this unique public servant on the bench of the 483rd District Court, Hays County.
