By Jessica Priest, Fort Worth Report October 27, 2021 Fort Worth City Councilman Cary Moon is exploring a run for the Republican nomination for state House District 93. In an interview with the Fort Worth Report on Wednesday, Moon said he expects to make a decision by Nov. 9 about whether he will run for the seat held by Republican state Rep. Matt Krause. That's the date of the next City Council meeting at which the council members may make announcements. District 93 includes parts of Fort Worth and Arlington. Krause is one of a handful of candidates running for Texas Attorney General and made headlines this week for launching an investigation into school districts' books on race and sexuality. Meanwhile, voters first elected Moon to City Council in 2015. He represents District 4, which includes neighborhoods from inside Loop 820 to the far north. He was re-elected in May, and his current term ends in 2023. To read the full article, click here.
