Michelle Gutierrez CohenIn May, Gutierrez Cohen did what almost never happens in county politics: she took on the sitting County Judge in his own primary and beat him by 16 points. She served three years on the Commissioners Court for Precinct 2, and now she wants to earn your vote to lead the county.
About Michelle
Her childhood in Section 8 housing in Hays County pushed her to pursue her education, and then to help others prosper in the county that let her do the same. With her bachelor's, her master's, and finally a doctorate, she built a 30-year career managing contracts and supply chains in business and government — and brought that to the Commissioners Court, where she started the county's first Procurement Office so taxpayers can see where the money goes. During COVID she founded Hays Latinos United to get food, testing and school supplies to neighborhoods the county wasn't reaching. One of her main passions is water — as more wells run dry and dense new neighborhoods keep coming, she supports business but puts county residents and the livelihoods that depend on our water first. She hopes to be the second woman ever elected Hays County Judge.
