My wife, Megg, and I married in 1983, and at the next election, the Republican election judge invited me to a meeting at his house. He said he would have some candidates there and BBQ. I went to that meeting. I met some judge candidates and Republican neighbors. He asked if I wanted to work as a clerk at the next election. I said yes and I have been involved ever since.
I have served as the County Chair of the Gillespie County Republican Party for 1.5 terms. I am running in the March Republican Primary for re-election to a two-year term. We bought our house in Gillespie County in 2014. We moved here full-time in June of 2020. I attended the county party meeting that summer as a member of the public. Later I was appointed the Vice Chair and I brought the Lincoln Reagan Dinner to Gillespie County as a way to fundraise for the party. I have been a part of all four Lincoln Reagan Dinners, raising almost $100,000 for the county party.
Below is my political resume. My views on the issues of the day are on this website, which I have maintained for many years.

True the Vote
When True the Vote began, Catherine Engelbrecht contacted the Harris County Republican Party, and I was sent to train the late Alan Vera on how to stop voter fraud. They were just getting into it. We produced videos that were used to train volunteer election workers. Of course, True the Vote became the leading experts in election integrity.

My ancestors, Johann George Fritze and Catherine Becker Phillips Fritze, and their five children came from Dillenburg, Germany, to Fredericksburg in 1846. The parents and a newborn died in June 1850, and the children were adopted by five separate families. My ancestor, Heinrich (Henry) Fritz was raised elsewhere, so I did not grow up in Fredericksburg. We bought a house here in 2014 and in 2020, we retired and moved here full time. I was a public high school teacher in Katy, Texas.
