Frederick Frazier will take the seat in Texas House District 61, which covers much of Collin County, including parts of McKinney and Frisco.
MCKINNEY, Texas — A GOP candidate who was indicted by a grand jury earlier this year for impersonating a public servant has won a seat in the Texas House.
The Associated Press declared Frederick Frazier the winner of Texas House District 61, which covers much of Collin County, including parts of McKinney and Frisco. He defeated Democratic candidate Sheena King.
Frazier made headlines in June when he turned himself in on accusations of impersonating a code enforcement officer to get rid of his primary opponent’s campaign signs in February.
Frazier is a former McKinney council member and a 27-year veteran of the Dallas Police Department. He had been placed on administrative leave after he turned himself in to Richardson police on June 24.
