• Multiple candidates running for Texas Senate in March primary, The Center Square, 19 December 2023

Because of redistricting and Texas Senate seats have staggered terms, only 15 seats in the upper chamber are on the 2024 ballot. There are 31 state senate districts in Texas, representing a 2020 Census population of 940,178.

The largest number of candidates on the ballot is in north Texas in Senate District 30, where incumbent state Sen. Drew Springer announced he's not running for reelection.

In District 30, which includes several counties bordering Oklahoma that lean over 60% Republican, seven candidates are running. They include three Democrats: Michael Braxton, Dale Frey, and Matthew McGhee; and four Republicans: Cody Clark, Carrie de Moor, Brent Hagenbuch, and Jace Yarbrough.


At the same time, the judge denied a motion by Brent Hagenbuch to dismiss the case challenging his eligibility, letting it move forward ahead of the March primary.


Brent Hagenbuch has faced multiple challenges to his residency claims, and now one case is going to trial.


Questions surrounding Hagenbuch's residency in the district have resulted in multiple legal challenges from fellow candidates.


Brent Hagenbuch is working to fend off doubts about his residency in the four-way Republican primary to replace retiring state Sen. Drew Springer, R-Muenster. A last-minute court filing claims he resides in a corporate apartment in the district.


A Republican primary race for an open North Texas senate seat has sparked a fight over the state’s residency requirements for legislative candidates.

Four GOP candidates filed to run for Senate District 30 after incumbent State Sen. Drew Springer (R–Muenster) announced on November 7 that he would not seek re-election. The candidates include Carrie de Moor, Cody Clark, Jace Yarbrough, and Brent Hagenbuch.

Hagenbuch resigned as chairman of the Denton County GOP to run for the seat, but residents noticed a key fact: he did not live in the senatorial district. State law requires senate candidates to live in the district they seek to represent for one year before the General Election Day—in this case, November 5.

Hagenbuch registered to vote at the address of his Little Elm home, which is in SD 12, in 2017; he has a current homestead exemption at that address. Voting history records from the Denton County Elections office show he voted using that address as recently as October 29, 2023.

A voter registration application dated November 13 shows Hagenbuch claiming a new residence at the address of his company’s just-completed office building in Denton. State law, though, forbids registering to vote at a commercial address.

Candidates De Moor and Yarbrough have filed separate residency challenges. It is De Moor’s lawsuit that is epxected to be heard today at 1:30 p.m. in the 393rd District Court in Denton County.

Fallon served in the Texas Senate for two years before running for Congress. He won’t see reelection in the U.S. House.

Fallon filed Monday for Senate District 30, a seat that is newly open after its incumbent, Sen. Drew Springer, R-Muenster, announced Tuesday he would not seek reelection.

Senate District 30 is a solidly Republican district that stretches from the Dallas-Fort Worth suburbs up to the Oklahoma state line.

Frisco trauma surgeon Carrie de Moor is already running in the GOP primary for SD-30. She was originally running against Springer before he announced his retirement.
