One Republican and one Democrat filed, per the Clerk's official August 2026 candidate filings; since each was his/her party's sole filer, no primary was needed and both meet on the November 3 ballot.

What this office does

Justice of the peace. Justices of the peace handle the lowest-level court matters: small claims, evictions, traffic and minor criminal cases, and, in some states, marriages and inquests. The office is part of the judiciary, so candidates are limited in what they may promise.
