MEMORANDUM OPINION
Opinion by
Justice FRANCIS.
Relators contend the Dallas County Commissioners Court abused its discretion by failing to order a May 12, 2007 local option election regarding the legal sale of beer and wine. Based on the record presented, we conclude the relators have failed to show the Dallas County Commissioners Court abused its discretion in its order no. 2007-386 denying the request for the local option election. See Walker v. Packer, 827 S.W.2d 833, 839-40 (Tex.1992) (orig. proceeding). Accordingly, relators' petition for writ of mandamus is DENIED. See Tex.R.App. P. 52.8(a).
