Hall faces three primary foes, Melancon running again

By BRAD KELLAR Herald-Banner Staff

GREENVILLE — The official start of filing is still months away, but several candidates have already announced they are planning to run in the March 2008 Republican and Democratic party primaries for House of Representatives District 4.

The district covers the northeast corner of Texas, including all of Hunt and Rockwall counties and most of Collin County.

The surprise so far has been how longtime incumbent Rep. Ralph Hall of Rockwall, who has usually only faced mild opposition in the primaries since switching to the GOP from the Democratic Party several years ago, now has three opponents challenging him for the Republican Party nomination.

While Hall has not formally announced he is seeking re-election, he has maintained a campaign Web site since the 2006 election.
