Aligned with the Tea Party movement, he succeeded fellow Republican Bob Deuell, whom he unseated by three hundred votes in the Republican runoff election held on May 27, 2014. Early life and educationHall graduated in 1960 with honors from George D. Chamberlain High School in Tampa, Florida. He is an Eagle Scout. In 1964, Hall received a Bachelor of Science degree in electrical engineering from The Citadel, The Military College of South Carolina. At The Citadel, he was cited in Who's Who in American Colleges and Universities.[1] Hall was a captain in the United States Air Force. From 1984 to 2013, he operated a business, Professional Proposal Management, Inc., which assisted companies in obtaining government contracts.{{citation needed|date=December 2017}} Political careerHall's run against incumbent State Senator Bob Deuell was his second run for public office. Hall had previously filed and campaigned for the same seat in 2012, but was subsequently disqualified due to failure to meet constitutional residency requirements.[2] Hall received endorsements from various conservative individuals and organizations[3] including former Texas Republican State Chairman Cathie Adams, who praised Hall's commitment.[4] Hall unseated Deuell in a runoff election, 18,230 votes (50.4 percent) to 17,930 (49.6 percent).[5][6] Deuell had led a three-candidate field in the primary on March 4, with 23,847 votes (48.5 percent). Because he fell short of a majority, he was placed in the runoff with the number-two candidate, Bob Hall, who in the primary polled 19,085 votes (38.8 percent). The remaining 6,240 votes (12.7 percent) went to a third candidate, Mark Thompson.[7] With his nomination in hand, Hall defeated Libertarian Party nominee, Don Bates, in the November 4 general election. One January 23, 2019, the chairmanship of the Agriculture committee was given to Hall after the chairmanship was taken from Kel Seliger, who had made a lewd comment to a female staff member of Lt. Governor Dan Patrick.[8] Voting record and political positionsEducationHall consistently votes against unfunded mandates on local public schools. He supported numerous pieces of legislation regarding unfunded mandates in education including SB 1068, which amends Chapter 38.101 of the Education Code so that an assessment of the physical fitness of a student may only be done at the request of the student's parents,[9] and SB 1309, which removes all mandates for teacher training and student instruction on internet safety, teen dating violence, bullying, parenting and paternity, child abuse, and bus safety.[10] AbortionDuring his tenure as a Senator, Hall has consistently supported pro-life legislation. Examples of supported legislation by Hall include SB 10, which created stricter abortion requirements at Health Care Facilities;[11] SB 258, which authorizes burial or cremation of fetal tissue after abortion or miscarriage;[12] and SB 20, which prohibits coverage of abortion from taxpayer funded health insurance plans.[13] Gun rightsHall has been described as a Second Amendment advocate, regularly voting against restrictions on gun ownership. He voted in favor of HB 910, which authorizes open carry of handguns;[14] SB 16, which reduces the fee for firearm carry licenses;[15] and SB 11, which authorizes concealed carry of firearms on college campuses.[16] Property taxHall has voted on several pieces of property tax reform legislation. SB 1 would require cities and counties to hold an election if they plan to increase their property tax revenues by 6%, regardless of whether they are increasing the actual tax rate or just taking advantage of rising property values.[17] Hall also voted for the 2015 budget bill, which put billions of dollars into property tax relief funds to buy down local property taxes for 2015.[18] Legislative ratings{{BLP unsourced section|date=December 2017}}
2018 reelectionIn the 2018 Republican primary, Hall was challenged by state representative Cindy Burkett, who ran as a politically moderate alternative to him. Hall defeated her in the March 6, 2018, primary election.[19][20] Hall won his second state Senate term in the general election held on November 6, 2018. With 152,659 votes (59.4 percent), he defeated the Democrat Kendall Scudder, who finished with 104,528 (40.6 percent).[21] Personal lifeHall and his wife, the former Sarah Kay Smith, a native of Commerce in Hunt County in East Texas, live in Tailwind Airpark in Edgewood, a community for pilots and aviation enthusiasts which has its own runway and hangars. The couple is Southern Baptist and has three adult sons.[22] Electoral history{{Election box begin no party| title=Republican Primary, 2018: Senate District 2 }}{{Election box candidate no party with winner | winner = ✓ | candidate = Bob Hall | votes = 35,561 | percentage = 53.2 | change = }}{{Election box candidate no party with winner | winner = | candidate = Cindy Burkett | votes = 31,239 | percentage = 46.8 | change = }}{{Election box majority no party | votes = | percentage = | change = }}{{Election box turnout no party | votes = 66,800 | percentage = | change = }}{{election box end}}{{Election box begin | title=Texas General Elections 2014: Senate District 2 }}{{Election box candidate with party link | party= Republican Party (US) | candidate = Bob Hall | votes = 99,868 | percentage = 83.6 | change = }}{{Election box candidate with party link | party= Libertarian Party (US) | candidate = Don Bates | votes = 19,609 | percentage = 16.4 | change = }}{{Election box majority | votes = | percentage = | change = }}{{Election box turnout | votes = 119,477 | percentage = | change = }}{{Election box hold with party link no swing | winner = Republican Party (US) }}{{Election box end}}{{Election box begin no party | title=Republican Primary Runoff, 2014: Senate District 2 }}{{Election box candidate no party with winner | winner = ✓ | candidate = Bob Hall | votes = 18,230 | percentage = 50.4 | change = }}{{Election box candidate no party with winner | winner = | candidate = Bob Deuell | votes = 17,930 | percentage = 49.6 | change = }}{{Election box majority no party | votes = | percentage = | change = }}{{Election box turnout no party | votes = 36,160 | percentage = | change = }}{{election box end}}{{Election box begin no party | title=Republican Primary, 2014: Senate District 2 }}{{Election box candidate no party with winner | winner = ✓ | candidate = Bob Hall | votes = 19,085 | percentage = 38.8 | change = }}{{Election box candidate no party with winner | winner = ✓ | candidate = Bob Deuell | votes = 23,847 | percentage = 48.5 | change = }}{{Election box candidate no party with winner | winner = | candidate = Mark Thompson | votes = 6,240 | percentage = 12.7 | change = }}{{Election box majority no party | votes = | percentage = | change = }}{{Election box turnout no party | votes = 49,172 | percentage = | change = }}{{election box end}}{{Portalbar|Biography|Texas|Florida|Virginia|Pennsylvania|Ohio|Business and Economics|Politics|Conservatism|United States Air Force|Baptist}} References1. ^{{cite web |url=http://votebobhall.com/About-Bob.html |title=More About Bob Hall |publisher=votebobhall.com |accessdate=November 27, 2014 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20141109042151/http://votebobhall.com/About-Bob.html |archivedate=November 9, 2014 |df= }} 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://myrockwallnews.com/bob-hall/ |title=State Senate candidate Bob Hall disqualified by GOP from running against Deuell – The Rockwall News | The Rockwall News |publisher=Myrockwallnews.com |date= |accessdate=2017-12-22}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://senatorbobhall.com/endorsements/ |title=Endorsements | Senator Bob Hall | Constitutional Conservative |publisher=Senator Bob Hall |date= |accessdate=2017-12-22}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=https://senatorbobhall.com/endorsements/|title=SenatorBobHall.com/Endorsements }} 5. ^{{cite web|url=https://team1.sos.state.tx.us/enr/results/may27_173_state.htm?x=0&y=2631&id=422|title=2014 Republican Party Primary Runoff: Election Night Returns|publisher=Texas Secretary of State|accessdate=May 28, 2014|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20140529052346/https://team1.sos.state.tx.us/enr/results/may27_173_state.htm?x=0&y=2631&id=422|archivedate=May 29, 2014|df=}} 6. ^Leszcynski, Ray.
