Overview: Dec. 14 Runoff Election
Starting Dec. 2, voters in the city of El Paso can cast their final ballots for mayor – and those living within certain City Council districts can vote for their next city representative in the Saturday, Dec. 14 runoff election. A municipal court judge race will also be on the ballot.
A runoff was necessary in the Nov. 5 city races where no candidate earned more than 50% of the vote, leaving the two candidates with the highest number of votes to face off again.
The mayoral runoff pits businessman Renard Johnson against city Rep. Brian Kennedy, while five city representative seats will also be on the ballot: Districts 1, 3, 4, 5 and 7. The District 2 seat was decided in the November general election.
Typically, four City Council seats are up for election every two years, but this year, six were on the ballot because two representatives resigned mid-term to run for mayor.
Early voting runs Dec. 2-10. Election Day is Dec. 14.
