Texas State Treasurer
Texas State Treasurer was a political office in the U.S. state of Texas, established in the Constitution of 1876. It was abolished in 1996. Texas is the only state that does not have a State treasurer.
==History==
The office of State Treasurer superseded a similar office in the Republic of Texas. The Treasurer had a four-year term as head of the State Treasury Department. The office, along with the treasury department, was abolished by Texas voters in 1995 and was formally closed in 1996,〔http://www.lib.utexas.edu/taro/tslac/10211/tsl-10211.html〕 with duties taken over by the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts.
The last person to be elected Treasurer, Martha Whitehead, ran in the 1994 election on the platform of abolishing her own office. Detractors to Whitehead's plan, including Republican opponent David Hartman, suggested the proposal was a fraud. Hartman favored expanding the Treasury by having it assume the duties of several other state agencies, including the Public Finance Authority and the Pension Review Board, possibly saving more money. Whitehead said in the event voters kept the office open she would have served the whole four-year term.〔http://www.nytimes.com/1994/10/30/us/the-1994-campaign-texas-candidate-seeks-job-she-would-cut.html〕 Whitehead, a Democrat, won by a narrow margin—50.29 percent to Hartman's 49.7 percent of 4,145,981 votes cast statewide.〔http://elections.sos.state.tx.us/elchist.exe〕
