Thomas Smith Republican

Judge, Court of Criminal Appeals, Place 3

Texas's highest criminal court hears drug-possession and search-and-seizure appeals, so this race matters for cannabis even though no campaign is about it. NONE of the three candidates has ever served as a judge — two are criminal defence attorneys and one a special assistant attorney general — so there are no published opinions to read, from any of them, on any subject. That is the finding, not a gap in the search.
