  • Dolph Briscoe Jr. (April 23, 1923 – June 27, 2010) was an American rancher and businessman from Uvalde, Texas, who was the 41st governor of Texas between 1973 and 1979. He was a member of the Democratic Party. Because of his re-election following an amendment to the Texas Constitution doubling the Governor's term to four years, Briscoe became both the last governor to serve a two-year term and the first to serve a four-year term. A lifelong resident of Uvalde, Briscoe was first elected to the Texas Legislature in 1948 and served as a state representative from 1949 to 1957. As part of the reform movement in state politics stemming from the Sharpstown scandal, Briscoe won election as governor in 1972. During his six years as governor, Briscoe presided during a period of reform in state government as Texas's population and commerce boomed. Following his two terms as governor, Briscoe returned to the ranching and banking business in Uvalde. He is recognized as having been one of the leading citizens of the state and a benevolent supporter of many civic, cultural, and educational institutions in Texas and the nation. Most recently before his death the former Texas governor established the Dolph and Janey Briscoe Fund for Texas History at the University of Texas at Austin. He was the last Democratic Texan to be re-elected to the Governor's Mansion with his reelection landslide victory in 1974; fellow Democratic governors Mark White and Ann Richards lost their re-election bids respectively, in 1986 and 1994.

  • Dolph Briscoe, Jr. (23 de abril de 1923 - 27 de junho de 2010) foi o 41º governador do estado americano de Texas, de 16 de janeiro de 1973 a 16 de janeiro de 1979. Por causa de sua reeleição após uma emenda à Constituição do Texas dobrando o mandato do governador para quatro anos, Briscoe se tornou o último governador a servir um mandato de dois anos e o primeiro a servir um mandato de quatro anos. Residente vitalício de Uvalde, Briscoe foi eleito pela primeira vez para o Legislativo do Texas em 1948 e serviu como deputado estadual de 1949 a 1957. Como parte do movimento de reforma na política estadual decorrente do escândalo de Sharpstown, Briscoe ganhou a eleição como governador em 1972. Durante seus seis anos como governador, Briscoe presidiu durante um período de reforma no governo estadual enquanto a população e o comércio do Texas cresciam. Após seus dois mandatos como governador, Briscoe voltou aos negócios pecuários e bancários em Uvalde. Ele é reconhecido por ter sido um dos principais cidadãos do estado e um apoiador benevolente de muitas instituições cívicas, culturais e educacionais no Texas e no país. Mais recentemente, antes de sua morte, o ex-governador do Texas estabeleceu o Fundo Dolph e Janey Briscoe para a História do Texas na Universidade do Texas em Austin. Ele também foi o último democrata texano a ser reeleito para a mansão do governador com sua vitória esmagadora na reeleição em 1974; outros governadores democratas Mark White e Ann Richards perderam suas candidaturas à reeleição, respectivamente, em 1986 e 1994.

  • Dolph Briscoe, född 23 april 1923 i Uvalde, Texas, död 27 juni 2010 i Uvalde, Texas, var en amerikansk demokratisk politiker. Han var guvernör i Texas 1973–1979. Briscoe härstammade från en släkt som hade bott i Texas sedan 1830-talet. Efter studier vid University of Texas gjorde han karriär som bankman och ranchägare; han ökade sitt innehav av fast egendom så mycket att han blev den störste markägaren i Texas. I början av 1970-talet hade Texaspolitikers trovärdighet skadats på grund av flera skandaler, något som Briscoe lyckades undvika. De ekonomiska strukturerna i Texas genomgick en modernisering under Briscoes tid som guvernör. (sv)
