Flood Response: Checking on Neighbors, Cleaning Up, Moving Forward
Jeremy spent the days after the flood checking on neighbors, helping muck out homes, and taking stock of the damage across the county.

Pint & Plow's relief kitchen is up and running, teaming up with World Central Kitchen to serve meals to anyone affected for as long as the need lasts. The brewery is also staying open for regular business, continuing to serve as the community gathering spot it's always aimed to be.
Kerr County River Foundation is out assessing damage to its restoration sites alongside its stewardship partners. The encouraging news: most of the trees planted after last year's floods made it through this one. That's fueling plans to plant even more - greater quantity and diversity mean a healthier river and a healthier community.
Center Point came through relatively well. CPVFD even had capacity to send a crew to help with a camp evacuation in neighboring Real County, working alongside Judge Rubio - a strong signal that things are well in hand back home.
This flood touched more of the county than last year's did, but far fewer lives were lost. Jeremy is thinking of the families who lost someone this time. The preparedness investments made after last year's disaster clearly paid off - credit to UGRA and other local leaders who've pushed for strategic, forward-looking planning.
Some of the hardest-hit areas were along Town Creek, Quinlan Creek, and Goat Creek, where more homes and businesses took on damage than last year. A lot of residents are still unsure how to handle debris removal or find official assistance - a reminder that communication and coordination during local disasters still has real room to improve.

On the Doors: Meeting Neighbors Across Precinct 2
Since the ballot was secured this spring, the campaign has been out talking with neighbors directly—door to door across Precinct 2.
Read more →
Jeremy has been knocking on doors himself, and a dedicated group of local volunteers has been installing door hangers with campaign information in neighborhoods throughout the precinct.
These conversations are the heart of this campaign: hearing directly what matters most to residents, answering questions face to face, and making sure every part of Precinct 2 has a chance to meet Jeremy or learn about his vision for the county before November.
If you'd like a visit, have questions, or want to help with outreach in your neighborhood, reach out to the campaign—we'd love to hear from you.

A look at how the 2026 election for Precinct 2 works, from the March primary to the November ballot.
Read more →
The 2026 election for Kerr County Commissioner Precinct 2 follows a unique path. On March 3rd, Republican voters chose between Mike Allen and Rich Paces in their primary, while no Democratic candidates filed for the race. As an independent candidate, Jeremy collected signatures from March 4th through June 25th to secure a spot on the November ballot.
The general election on November 3rd will feature just two candidates: the Republican primary winner and Jeremy Walther running as an independent. This means all Precinct 2 voters—regardless of primary participation—will have a choice between traditional party politics and independent leadership focused on practical solutions for Kerr County.
To qualify for the ballot, Jeremy needed 273 valid signatures from Precinct 2 voters who do not vote in the Republican primary.
