Election history
editPrice ran without opposition in the general election held on November 6, 2018. Shortly thereafter, he withdrew his candidacy for Texas House Speaker, having unsuccessfully, along with several others, sought to succeed the retiring Joe Straus of San Antonio. Instead, Price endorsed Republican Dennis Bonnen of Angleton in Brazoria County, who emerged as the consensus choice for the speakership.[2]
Price announced his decision not to seek an eighth term in Texas House on July 19, 2023.[3]
