In their own words
Quoted from Lori Chambers Gray’s own official campaign material — what the campaign says the candidate will do. Some campaigns write about their candidate in the third person; the wording is theirs either way. These are the candidate’s claims: PlainDocket doesn’t check, rate or endorse them, and every candidate in a race is quoted the same way, from the same kind of source.
“Lori Chambers Gray is a native Houstonian and is the presiding judge of the 262nd Criminal District Court located in Harris County, Houston, Texas.”
“In addition to presiding over the 262nd Criminal District Court, Judge Gray has served as co-presiding judge over the competency restoration docket and chair of the Harris County Treatment Court Committee.”
“Prior to assuming the bench, Judge Gray was the founding and principal attorney of the Law Office of Lori Gray, a firm specializing in criminal and civil business law for over 28 years, representing individuals and businesses in state and federal courts.”
“Judge Lori Chambers Gray created the Next Chapter Reading Program for incarcerated youth. The Next Chapter program provides guided Professional Coaching to participants utilizing books as a catalyst for success.”

How we count this
The filing reports a total but doesn’t break it down by source, so there is nothing to chart here.
- This figure is the candidate's own campaign account. Any committee the Texas Ethics Commission records as supporting them is listed separately and is NOT added in — money moved between the two is reported by both, so a combined total would count it twice.
- These lines don't add up to total receipts — receipts also include transfers, loans and refunds, which aren't donations.
- Filing is periodic (semiannual, 30-day, or 8-day pre-election reports). The figure above sums every report filed for the current 2025-2026 election cycle, through the most recent period shown — it can be several months stale depending on where a candidate is in the filing cycle, and excludes activity from any earlier cycle.
- The Texas Ethics Commission and the Federal Election Commission define "total receipts" differently — Texas Ethics Commission figures should never be compared directly against a federal candidate's FEC figures.

Official records
We searched the registries below and found no record for Lori Chambers Gray.
Checked 28 July 2026: Texas Legislature (impeachment records) · Texas Ethics Commission (final orders) · State Bar of Texas (attorney discipline) · Texas State Securities Board (enforcement orders). The same registries are searched for every candidate in a race, and each entry describes only what the record itself states — including how it ended. We publish no allegations and no news coverage.
- The Texas Ethics Commission is required by law to keep dismissed complaints, and findings it treats as technical or minor, confidential — so no result there means no publicly-issued final order, not that no complaint was ever filed.
- A State Bar profile shows public disciplinary history the Bar publishes online; older judgments are held by its disciplinary counsel and aren't in that profile.
