A change is coming to Texas' top election office. Jane Nelson, the state's current secretary of state, will be stepping down later this summer. She has held the position for over three years.

Nelson's departure has sparked interest in who will replace her. Governor Greg Abbott is expected to make an appointment, but details about potential candidates have not been confirmed. Further information about the challenges Nelson faced during her tenure and the potential impact of her replacement on Texas elections can be found through TribCast, which is exploring these topics in depth.
