North Texas Voters Decide City, School Runoff Races June 7

Runoff elections across Texas, including North Texas, Amarillo, Central Texas, and several counties, are taking place on June 7 to decide key local races where no candidate received a majority in the May 3 election. Major contests include city council seats and mayoral races in cities such as Dallas, Fort Worth, Frisco, Garland, McKinney, and Amarillo. Notably, Irving's City Council at-large seat features two political newcomers competing amid significant political spending linked to GOP donors and debates over a casino resort development. Dallas voters will select replacements for two term-limited council members, with key districts seeing potential major changes, while North Dallas voters will decide on a council seat involving a contentious redevelopment project. Polls across these regions open at 7 a.m. and close at 7 p.m., with multiple counties participating in these runoff elections. These elections are critical in shaping local governance and policies across Texas cities and counties.
