Meet the Candidates: Llano County Pct. 4 Commissioner went live at 12:30 p.m. on Tuesday. Incumbent Republican Pct. 4 Commissioner Jerry Don Moss and Democratic challenger Leila Green Little each introduced themselves, answered pressing questions, and had the opportunities to make rebuttals against their opponent’s remarks.
The candidates were asked a total of seven questions each, and given three minutes to respond. Their opponent then had the opportunity to make a one-minute rebuttal which could then be followed up by a one-minute response from the original candidate.
Four of the questions were generated by DailyTrib editorial staff while the rest were submitted by DailyTrib readers.
The winner of this election will take office in January 2027 and serve a four-year term on the Llano County Commissioners Court representing Precinct 4.

Candidate Profiles

Incumbent Pct. 4 Commissioner Jerry Don Moss has held his seat since 2007. He won the Republican nomination in the party’s March 2026 primary after defeating his opponent Robert Little in a landslide victory, securing 90.78 percent of the vote.
Democratic challenger Leila Green Little ran unopposed in her party’s primary, securing a spot in the Nov. 3 midterm election.
Robert and Leila Little are husband and wife, and they filed for the same seat in different political parties. According to the Littles, they both filed on platforms of change and to specifically challenge Moss’ long time leadership.
The Littles are connected to Moss through the Llano County Library System lawsuit, which saw Leila as a leading plaintiff in a First Amendment lawsuit against the county and some of its leadership, including Moss as a named defendant.
