On Tuesday evening, Curtis Parrish defeated Gary Boren in the GOP primary runoff for Lubbock County Judge.
The final unofficial result was 5,563 (54.24%) for Parrish and 4,693 (45.76%) for Boren.
The results of early voting were 3,659 (52.46%) for Parrish compared to 3,316 (47.54%) for Boren.
Boren and Parrish had been in a three-way race with Karen Gibson in the March 6 Republican Primary. Because no single candidate won a majority of votes in the primary, a runoff was scheduled.
Local Democrats are not fielding a candidate for Lubbock County Judge in the November general election. For all practical purposes Parrish won the seat and will replace outgoing judge Tom Head.
