From official pages
Audra Riley, Democratic, is certified for judge of the Court of Criminal Appeals, Place 4. The Ethics Commission form says Audra D. Riley, with office held as criminal district court, Place 3. The office-sought line on that form still says criminal district court judge, District 3, which does not match this ballot, so that line was not used. Dallas County lists Hon. Audra Riley as the presiding judge of Criminal District Court No. 3.
