The State Bar of Texas Board of Directors’ Nominations and Elections Subcommittee voted to recommend the nomination of Sara E. Dysart of San Antonio as a candidate for 2021-2022 State Bar president-elect, after E. Leon Carter of Dallas withdrew his name from consideration.
Dysart joins Laura Gibson of Houston as the subcommittee’s recommended president-elect nominees.

Potential petition candidates can begin collecting signatures on September 1, 2020, and have until March 1, 2021, to submit their nominating petitions to the State Bar for certification. For information on how to run for president-elect, go here.
