Two candidates supported by Texans for Affordable Electric Rates have won election as director at Pedernales Electric Cooperative

PEC members re-elected James Oakley, an incumbent, and elected Jim Powers, who did not face opposition

Oakley had made statements during this election cycle as being opposed to choice. Powers had made statements as being open to consideration of the issue. However, both were supported by Texans for Affordable Electric Rates, which, according to the American-Statesman, has previously endorsed candidates who backed retail choice 

Indeed, the endorsements by Texans for Affordable Electric Rates had led to speculation on pectruthwatch.com, in a guest post attributed to William Boggs, former PEC Director, about such endorsed candidates' true position on choice

While re-elected, Oakley did not retain his position as board president, as Emily Pataki was elected president by board members
