Redistricting has brought changes to Eastland County. Although voting precincts in the county itself did not need to be redistricted, our state house and senate districts changed. Additionally, we are now a part of U.S. Congressional House District 25. Congressman John Roger Williams was re-elected as representative of this district in the 2022 November election. Williams has represented congressional district 25 since 2013. He also served as Secretary of State of Texas under Governor Rick Perry.
