She was the last Texas State Treasurer before the position was abolished by constitutional amendment in 1996. BiographyWhitehead is a former mayor of Longview, Texas.[1] In 1993, Texas Governor Ann Richards appointed Whitehead as Texas State Treasurer, filling the vacancy created when the previous incumbent, Kay Bailey Hutchison was elected to the U.S. Senate.[2] In 1994, Whitehead ran for State Treasurer on the explicit promise to abolish the office and move its few remaining functions to the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts office (which had already taken over most of the duties of collecting and accounting for state taxes),[3] and was subsequently elected. In 1995, the Texas Legislature passed a proposed constitutional amendment to abolish the office, which was approved by the voters later that same year.[3] The office was formally dismantled in 1996. On her last day in office, August 31, 1996, she scraped her name and title off the glass front of the Treasurer's headquarters.[4] References1. ^{{cite web|author=SAM HOWE VERHOVEK|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1994/10/30/us/the-1994-campaign-texas-candidate-seeks-job-she-would-cut.html?scp=57&sq=texas%20state%20treasurer&st=cse |title=THE 1994 CAMPAIGN: TEXAS; Candidate Seeks Job She Would Cut - The New York Times |publisher=Nytimes.com |date=October 30, 1994 |accessdate=January 14, 2019}} {{s-start}}{{s-off}}{{s-bef|before=Kay Bailey Hutchison}}{{s-ttl|title=Treasurer of Texas|years=1993–1996}}{{s-aft|after=office abolished}}{{s-end}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Whitehead, Martha}}{{Texas-politician-stub}}2. ^{{cite web|url=http://texinfo.library.unt.edu/texasregister/text/1993/0716gov.txt |title=Texas Register - The Portal to Texas History |publisher=Texinfo.library.unt.edu |date=January 6, 1976 |accessdate=January 14, 2019}} 3. ^1 {{dead link|date=January 2019}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.politifact.com/texas/statements/2010/mar/19/karl-rove/karl-rove-writes-democrats-abolished-state-treasur/ |title=Karl Rove writes that Democrats abolished state treasurer's office after she won it and she later became senator | PolitiFact Texas |publisher=Politifact.com |date= |accessdate=January 14, 2019}} 7 : Year of birth missing (living people)|Living people|People from Longview, Texas|Mayors of places in Texas|State treasurers of Texas|Texas Democrats|Women mayors of places in Texas |
