Brown County Judge candidate Tom Munson held a meet and greet Thursday night as dozens attended at the Brownwood Event Center.

Munson told KOXE, “My decision to run for county judge is based on the fact that I believe I can do a great job. I care a lot about this county. I’m a licensed attorney, I can carry out all the responsibilities of the court as a court. Then I’ve got 30 years of business leadership experience that I believe I can apply in helping to run the county from an administrative standpoint. I care a lot about this county and I just want to give back. That’s why I’m running.”

Regarding his vision for Brown County if elected, Munson told KOXE, “Basically to start with is to move things along in the courthouse itself, both through the commissioners side from the administrative side and through the judicial side. A lot of stuff has gotten clogged up, we need to get things moving in time, we don’t want to miss deadlines, if we have grants we want to make sure we get them. It’s to get things flowing in a way that the county as a whole can serve the people of Brown County in the best manner possible. Right now that’s my vision, and I feel like we can get there pretty quick.”

Fellow Brown County Judge candidate Patrick Howard will hold a meet and greet at 5 p.m. Monday, Feb. 2 at the Early Visitors and Event Center.

KOXE is not aware of any public events scheduled for incumbent Shane Britton.

A forum for the March 3 Republican primary will be held Thursday, Feb. 5 at Victory Life Church.
