## Resource

Lubbock County’s longtime elections chief, Roxzine Stinson, is stepping down after 23 years on the job — but don’t worry, the county’s election machine isn’t slowing down. Her successor, Troy Havard, a seasoned elections pro with seven years in Tarrant County and 28 years in the U.S. Marine Corps, is set to take the reins August 1st. With 25 applicants vying for the role, Havard’s experience and interview performance made him the top pick. County Judge Curtis Parrish hailed Stinson as a state-leading election administrator and praised Havard’s appointment as a smart move to maintain Lubbock’s reputation for secure, efficient, and trustworthy elections.
