Eldon Beau Boulter (born February 23, 1942) is a Washington, D.C.-based lobbyist who was a Republican U.S.
representative from Texas between 1985 and 1989.
Boulter was born in El Paso, Texas, to Eldon Howard Boulter and Betty Sue (Heavenhill) Boulter.
He graduated in 1960 from Levelland High School in Levellandin Hockley County, near Lubbock.
In 1965, he graduated from the University of Texas at Austin, and in 1968, he earned his law degree from Baylor Law School in Waco, Texas.
He was thereafter admitted to the bar and practiced law in Amarillo.
From 1981 to 1983, he was a member of the Amarillo City Commission. In 1982, Boulter lost the Republican primary for the 13th district congressional seat.
Two years later, he unseated Democratic U.S.
Representative Jack Hightower in the general election.
He was helped by Ronald Reagan's massive landslide that year; Reagan won most of the counties in this district by margins of 2-to-1 or greater.
Although the 13th District had become increasingly Republican at the national level, Boulter's win is still regarded as an upset.
He was one of six freshmen Republican congressmen elected from Texas in 1984; they were collectively called the Texas Six Pack.
