Gary VanDeaver

Gary VanDeaver voted for marijuana restrictions on 1 of 2 scored roll calls.

Left office: Republican who served House District 1 from 2015. He had already chosen not to seek reelection, then resigned effective September 21, 2026 so his successor could prepare for the 90th session. Republican Chris Spencer and Democrat Sean Huffman face each other for the seat on the November 3, 2026 ballot. He voted on Senate Bill 3 in May 2025 while serving, so his vote appears on that roll call.
