   Unofficial election results show Jake Ellzey will replace U.S. Rep. Ron Wright,   
   who died in February after contracting COVID-19.   
   At an election night event at the Texas Motorplex Ellzey told around 100   
   supporters he was honored to have been elected, and he credited his win to his   
   campaign's "positive outlook — a Reagan-Republican outlook for the future of   
   our   
   country."   
      
   Ellzey, a state legislator from Waxahachie, has around 53% of votes tallied, a   
   lead he maintained from the time early voting returns were released.   
      
   He was not the favorite in the race since competitor Susan Wright had the   
   endorsement of former President Donald Trump and Sen. Ted Cruz. Susan Wright is   
   longtime Republican activist and the widow of Ron Wright.

   This is excellent news.  Here's hoping a Trump endorsement is a kiss of death.
