We remand to the trial court to void the November 2022 Loving County and District Clerk election and order a new election for Loving County and District Clerk.

We affirm the trial court’s residency determinations as to all 19 voters challenged on appeal, and we affirm the trial court’s judgment in all other respects.

We further order that all parties bear their own costs of appeal, for which let execution issue. This decision shall be certified below for observance.

IT IS SO ORDERED THIS 16TH DAY OF AUGUST 2024.
