Voting is underway in the Austin City Council Place three runoff election. Polls will be open until 7:00 p.m.
Incumbent Randi Shade finished second in the May general election to challenger Kathie Tovo. Turnout for that vote totaled 7.4% of eligible voters. Early voting for today's runoff election ended Tuesday, after drawing 5.8% of Austin's voters to the polls. The race has become contentious, with each side trading barbs about public safety funding, city support for Formula One racing and election law violations.
KUT will have results on-air and online tonight, as soon as they're available.
