The District Clerk's office handles the files for every felony, divorce and lawsuit in Tarrant County, and it has had the same leader for more than 30 years. Nathan Smith, an Army veteran and Bronze Star recipient from a three-generation military family, says that's too long.
Smith grew up in Arlington public schools, lives in Mansfield, and worked on Commissioner Alisa Simmons' staff, where he learned how county government runs. He says he would modernize the office and make it serve "all Tarrant residents, not just the wealthy and well-connected." He is running alongside Simmons' Democratic slate.
