In their own words
Quoted from Tonya Jones’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.
“She currently serves as Judge of Harris County Criminal Court at Law #15. She and 16 other African American women made history during the November 2018 midterm election when they were elected to the bench in Harris County (Houston), the third largest city in the nation.”
“She was the youngest judge elected in Harris County on November 6th and is the First African-American to serve on her bench.”
“Tonya's county court colleagues elected her to serve as the Local Administrative Judge for the County Courts at Law. This includes the 16 county criminal courts as well as the 4 county civil courts at law.”
“Tonya is passionate about public service and uses every opportunity she has to cultivate and encourage future leaders in criminal justice. She has a plan to engage, educate, and empower from the community to the courtroom and is excited about the opportunity to do so.”
Official records
We searched the registries below and found no record for Tonya Jones.
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.
