This year, City of Austin residents will get a chance to elect (in most cases, re-elect) representatives in Districts 2, 4, 6, 7 and 10.
Only District 2, which comprises much of Southeast Austin, is a wide-open race. Mayor Pro Tem Delia Garza, the incumbent, will be leaving her seat to become Travis County attorney after winning a runoff (and the race) in July.
