Wolff, who is the only Republican on the Bexar County Commissioners Court, won in 2016 with more than 58% of the vote. He announced his retirement last August.
DeBerry, founder of marketing agency The DeBerry Group and a former TV anchor, raised $112,242 in the second half of 2019, according to her semiannual campaign finance report.
Deberry also ran for mayor in 2009 and lost the election to the now-former mayor and former Democratic presidential candidate Julian Castro.
Rickhoff also has some name recognition among local voters. He is a former probate judge whose career dates back to 1978. The candidate has ramped up public attacks against Deberry in this race.
The race for the GOP nomination will likely head to a runoff. The candidate who wins that race will have a good chance of replacing Wolff in the North Side district, which will likely trend Republican in the Nov. 3 election.
