State Representative candidate Jamie Haynes will be in Hereford next week, campaigning on her quest to unseat longtime State Rep. John Smithee (R-Amarillo).

Haynes, a Canyon native, will be in Hereford for two events next week. First, Haynes will appear at a meet and greet Tuesday at the Hereford Country Club. The event will begin at 5:30pm and light refreshments will be provided.

In addition, Haynes also has a coffee meet and greet planned for Wednesday at 7am at The Water Lot in Hereford. Free caramel or pumpkin spice macchiatos will be provided for educators.

Haynes is running in the Republican primary against Smithee for the House District 86 seat. The district includes Armstrong, Dallam, Deaf Smith, Hartley, Oldham, Parmer, and Randall counties.

The Republican primary is scheduled for Tuesday, March 5, 2024.
