After more than ten years in office, Williams, the chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, was in October 2013 in the process of resigning, to accept a government relations position at his alma mater, Texas A&M University in College Station. On October 3, Williams confirmed that he would not run again in the Republican primary election scheduled for March 4, 2014.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Allen Reed, Texas Sen.

Williams has served as president of Woodforest Financial Services, an affiliate of Woodforest National Bank. Williams started his new position at Texas A&M on December 2, 2013.〔Stewart, Katy. (Retired state senator joins Texas A&M leadership ), Houston Business Journal, November 1, 2013.〕 Among those seeking to fill Williams' Senate seat were neighboring State Representatives Steve Toth of District 15 in The Woodlands and Brandon Creighton of District 16 in Conroe, both of Montgomery County. Creighton handily defeated Toth in a runoff election to claim the seat. One of Williams' former staff members is the incoming Republican Representative Dade Phelan of Beaumont in House District 21.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=About Dade Phelan )〕 == Election results == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tommy Williams (politician)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
