AUSTIN — Veteran state Sen. Kel Seliger of Amarillo, who faced a Republican primary challenger last year, will have another opponent next year.
Former Midland Mayor Mike Canon said Saturday he is challenging the Amarillo Republican in the March 4 primary.
“This is something that I gave a lot of thought,” Canon, an oil and gas attorney, said in a phone interview before making the official announcement in Midland. “I had to put my law practice on hold.”
