Travis County voters have made the final calls on three races in this runoff election.
Voters who live in Austin City Council District 7 gave Mike Siegel the edge over Gary Bledsoe by just 206 votes. Siegel is a former city attorney and said some of his top priorities are addressing affordability and climate change, and improving public transportation and access to basic city services.
Siegel is also known for his work as co-founder of Ground Game Texas, a political nonprofit that has organized to decriminalize marijuana in cities across the state.
For an at-large seat of the Austin Independent School District Board of Trustees, Fernando Lucas de Urioste is the victor, defeating Lindsey Stringer.
De Urioste is a former Austin ISD teacher and now works as the director of advocate services at Cirkiel Law Group, which focuses on “championing the rights of children and adults with disabilities.”
The only other race in Travis County was for mayor of Manor, where Christopher Harvey bested Tricia Campbell.
Only 3.6% of the county's registered voters took part in this runoff — that's 20,456 out of over half a million registered voters.
After the ballots were counted in November, these races went to a runoff election because no candidate got a majority, or 50% plus at least one vote. The two candidates with the most votes went on to face each other in the runoff.
Hays County also had runoff elections for a couple of city council positions. Marc McKinney won easily in the race for Kyle City Council District 5. Lorenzo Gonzalez won the San Marcos City Council Place 5 seat by a narrow margin.
