Tex. Election Code Section 144.003
Application Required

(a)

Except as otherwise provided by law, to be entitled to a place on the ballot, a candidate must make an application for a place on the ballot. An application, other than an application required to be accompanied by fee, may be filed through e-mail transmission of the completed application in a scanned format to the e-mail address designated by the filing authority in the notice required under Section 141.040 (Notice of Deadlines and Filing Methods).

(b)

If a law outside this code purports to prescribe the exclusive requirements that a candidate’s application must satisfy for the candidate’s name to be placed on the ballot, Section 141.031 (General Requirements for Application)(a)(4)(L) also applies to the application. The other provisions of Section 141.031 (General Requirements for Application) do not apply.
