Congratulations to Our 2025 Joint General Special and Bond Election Winners

Rolando Pablos, Misty Spears, Paula McGee, and Patty Gibbons

On behalf of The Republican Party of Bexar County, I would like to extend my heartfelt congratulations to each of you on your remarkable victory in the recent elections. Your unwavering dedication, relentless hard work, and passionate efforts have led to this well-deserved success, and we are incredibly proud of each of you. There were 116,604 ballots cast, representing 9.27% of the registered voters. That percentage must be greatly improved for the Runoff Election if we are to win.

We also want to extend our sincerest gratitude to all the candidates who ran in the elections but did not win. Your contributions to the campaign have been invaluable, and we deeply appreciate your efforts. We are confident that you will support and endorse our candidates as we move forward.

Now is the time to get energized and fight with vigor to achieve victory. This election is crucial for advancing our conservative principles and ensuring common-sense leadership for our community. The Republican Party of Bexar County has an exciting and aggressive 21-Day plan for this election, and we invite everyone to join us and be a part of this historic moment.

Together, we will continue to strive for excellence and work towards a brighter future for our city and our citizens.

With pride and determination, let us march forward and achieve the triumph that we have all prayed for and envisioned. Remember, IF REPUBLICANS VOTE, WE WIN!

Bexar County Republicans!

Happy Spring, Patriots! As we step into 2025, I am energized and inspired by the incredible journey ahead. First, after a landslide election victory in 2024, President Trump in less than 40 days is off to a historic start. The President is in full warp speed of delivering on the promises he made to the American people. The President signed more executive orders on his first day in office than any other president in history. These orders include: securing the border, deporting criminal illegal immigrants, unleashing American prosperity, increase government transparency, and the President has already secured over $1 trillion in historic new investments. He has ensured the elimination of discriminatory DEI practices, and he has reinstituted merit-based hiring in the federal government. Let us not forget the appointment of Elon Musk and creation of D.O.G.E. (Department of Government Efficiency) Also, his Cabinet appointments are all “America First” selections. (You can find Trump’s Cabinet listed directly below my message.)

In January, I had the privilege of traveling to Washington, D.C. with many San Antonians and thousands of resolute patriots to witness President Trump’s historic inauguration. It was incredible seeing Republicans of all stripes come together to celebrate such a momentous occasion. It was a powerful reminder that when Republicans stand together, there is nothing we cannot accomplish.

On January 14th, the 89th Texas Legislative Session convened. I had the honor to attend the Investiture of the Texas State Senators. As the Texas Legislature begins its session, I ask for your prayers for our State Representatives and Senators. These leaders are tasked with solving the largest problems our state faces and will face. May they be guided by wisdom, courage, and a commitment to the principles that make Texas great.

Looking ahead, the Bexar County Republican Party staff and volunteers are working tirelessly as we prepare for the May 3rd elections. We made significant strides in 2024, but our task is far from over. I have made it my mission to ensure the Republican Party of Bexar County supports every Republican candidate and generates voter participation. The party held a successful Mayoral Forum and is preparing to host a City Council candidate Forum. My commitment to have a Republican running in every single race on the ballot came close to fruition, we successfully have 9 out of the 11 races. We will continue to build on our successes and take back our city of San Antonio!

I want to leave you today with a charge. Our party cannot afford to become overconfident after our victories in 2024; however, if we can maximize the enthusiasm of the November voter turnout, we have an opportunity to win some of these local races. If you wish to get involved, please call the office at 210.824.9445, and ask for the contact details of your Precinct Chair, RPBC’s Campaign Activities Chair or RPBC’s Volunteer Coordinator to get engaged. If your precinct is vacant, consider running! This is how we will win, with more “boots on the ground.”

God bless each of you and God bless Texas.

Kris Coons, County Chairwoman
