Former Rick Perry appointee emerges as possible GOP candidate for Byron Cook's seat in the House

A race against Thomas McNutt could get ugly, but Dr. Linda Timmerman says “the people who know me know that I’m going to be honest with them”

A two-time appointee of former Gov. Rick Perry, Dr. Linda Timmerman, tells Quorum Report this afternoon that she’s eyeing a run for the Texas House seat being vacated by retiring State Affairs Committee Chairman Byron Cook, R-Corsicana.

“I’m in the consideration stage right now,” Dr. Timmerman said, adding that she would have a decision in the next day or two as she talks to people in the area.
