"Kirk Watson has officially won a new term as Austin's next mayor. Watson led his four challengers on Nov. 5, but did not have enough votes to claim victory outright. He had to win a majority of the vote, or 50% plus one vote, to secure a new term and avoid a runoff. After adding in overseas military ballots, certain domestic mail-in ballots and provisional ballots – which were counted through Tuesday – Watson enough votes to avoid the runoff with Carmen Llanes Pulido, who?had the second most votes. Final tallies released Thursday showed him to have earned 175,090 votes, about 13 votes over the threshold he needed to avoid a runoff. Those votes include tallies across Travis, Williamson and Hays counties..." KUT & KUTX Public Media City of Austin #atxgov https://lnkd.in/gYWdqFfv
