Bryan voters in Single Member District 2 will return to the polls Saturday, Dec. 12, for a City Council runoff pitting Chrissy Ransome against Jeannette Stewart Moseley, after the last ballots from the Nov. 3 election put Moseley two votes ahead of incumbent Ray Arrington for second place.
*Results are unofficial until certified.*
Brazos County finished counting the remaining mail and provisional ballots this week. In the three-way race, Ransome finished first with 1,467 votes but short of the more than 50% required to take the seat without a runoff, according to KBTX and FOX44. Moseley had 954 votes and Arrington, who holds the seat, had 952, KBTX reported.
A total of 3,373 votes were cast in the race.
Early voting for the runoff is scheduled for Nov. 30 through Dec. 8, FOX44 reported.
The Bryan City Council is set to certify the November results at its Tuesday, Nov. 17, meeting and formally order the runoff, according to both stations. FOX44 reported that Mayor Bobby Gutierrez and District 1 Councilmember Paul Torres are to take the oath for second terms at that meeting.
College Station voters face runoffs of their own on Dec. 12, for City Council Places 1 and 5, KBTX reported.
