Deatherage in JP race
Taylor County sheriff's deputy A.L. Deatherage will run for
justice of the peace, he said Monday.
He said he will announce his candidacy for the Republican nomination

campaigns for the Precinct 1, Place 1 spot now held by JP Rex
Andrew.

second floor of the Taylor County Courthouse.
