Amanda Marzullo announces candidacy for Travis County Commissioners Court

Friday, May 16, 2025 by Mina Shekarchi

Amanda Marzullo announced her bid for the Travis County Precinct 2 seat this week in an email inviting supporters to her campaign launch party.

Marzullo is a former executive director of the Texas Defender Service. She currently works as a Senior Staff Attorney at the Austin Community Law Center. “Travis County deserves forward-thinking leadership that puts people before corporations,” she told the Austin Monitor.

Marzullo’s announcement comes early, as the election for County Precinct 2 will take place in November of 2026. Precinct 2 is currently represented by Hon. Brigid Shea, a former Austin City Council member and a co-founder of Save Our Springs. Shea has served the county since 2015. She has yet to issue a formal statement on whether she will be seeking re-election.
