Guadalupe County elections administrator resigns, search for her replacement now underway
Seguin ISD names new AD, head HS football coach Cindy Aguirre-Herrera
(Seguin) -- For Gary Gutierrez, this week’s appointment as Seguin ISD’s new athletic director and head football coach was more than a career move. It was a homecoming. The Seguin ISD Board of Trustees officially approved Gutierrez’s hiring during a special meeting Tuesday, ending months of anticipation about who would lead the Matador football program. The move comes after former AD and Head Football Coach Craig Dailey announced that he
would be transitioning into a different role within the district. Before building what district officials say has been a successful coaching career across Texas, Guiterrez served as the offensive coordinator at Seguin High School from 2003 to 2006. Gutierrez shared with the Seguin Daily News about what returning to Seguin means to him and his family. Coach, pg. 3
(Seguin) – It’s back to the drawing board for The Guadalupe County Election Commission as it begins the hiring process for a new Guadalupe County Election Administrator. This vacancy comes after the recent and abrupt resignation of Cristian ‘Cris” Pérez García, who had been selected for the role by the Elections Commission in March 2026. Although she was on hand to oversee the Tuesday, March 26 Primary Runoff Election, it was already noted that Garcia had announced her decision the day before. The Election Commission reports that County Clerk Teresa Kiel will oversee operations and manage services within the elections office during the transition period maintaining continuity, to ensure uninterrupted operations. This will maintain the integrity of voting while the hiring process moves forward. Officials say The Election Administrator is responsible for overseeing federal, state, and local elections within the county, supervising staff and temporary
election workers, to ensure compliance with federal and state regulations as outlined in the Texas Election Code. The Committee expresses appreciation for Pérez García’s service, professionalism, and expertise during her time with the County. They especially recognized her assistance with multiple elections and administrative operations. “We appreciate the election teams’ efforts and commitment to managing our county elections during this busy season. As we move forward, our focus remains on the hiring process while ensuring the elections office continues to effectively serve our residents.” said Kiel. The Election Commission consists of Guadalupe County officials: Judge Kyle Kutscher, County Clerk Teresa Kiel, County Tax Assessor-Collector Daryl John, along with the Democratic Party Chair Glenda Henry and Republican Party Chair Karen Hale.
