Political career edit

Prior to his election into the Texas House he served on the Flower Mound Town Council.

In 2022 he ran for the vacant seat in the 63rd District, as then-incumbent Tan Parker opted to run for the vacancy in the 12th District in the Texas Senate.

Bumgarner faced three candidates in the Republican primary: Jake Collier (no relation to the former Denton County district judge of the same name, who died in 2020[2]); Nick Sanders; and Jeff Younger. Bumgarner and Younger met in the primary runoff where Bumgarner won by a near 2-1 margin. Bumgarner then faced Democrat candidate H. Denise Wooten in the general election, winning by a 10-point margin.

88th Texas Legislature edit

In his first term, Bumgarner served on the Defense & Veterans Affairs and the International Relations & Economic Development Committees.

Bumgarner also voted to expel Bryan Slaton from the House[3] and to impeach Ken Paxton.[4]
