Sean Huffman

Sean Huffman is the Democratic candidate for Texas House of Representatives District 1 in the November 3, 2026 general election, facing Republican Chris Spencer.[1][2] A business owner who lives in Paris, Texas, he says he is running on public education, rural healthcare access and property tax relief.[1]

Huffman earned a high school diploma from Guymon High School, and his listed career experience is as a business owner.[1] He advanced from the Democratic primary on March 3, 2026, with no other candidate on the ballot.[1]

In a 2026 Ballotpedia survey, Huffman described himself as a resident of Paris, Texas, and said his campaign is built on the belief that state government should prioritize "people over politics."[1] He listed three key messages: moving Texas from the bottom 10 to the top 10 states in public education, a "Rural Texas Strong" healthcare strategy to address rural hospital closures, and property tax relief by having the state fulfill its obligation to fund public education.[1] He named the AFL-CIO as an endorsing organization.[1]
