Former Bellaire mayor Cindy Siegel was elected chair of the Harris County Republican Party Monday evening, narrowly defeating vice chair Kevin Fulton in a battle to lead Texas’ largest local GOP organization.
Siegel, a former vice chair and treasurer of the party, most recently sought the Republican nomination in Texas’ 7th Congressional District, finishing second to Army veteran Wesley Hunt. She will take over amid a rough patch for Harris County Republicans, who last won a countywide election in 2014.
