Leander residents will cast ballots June 11 in a runoff election to determine two seats on City Council.

These races advanced to a runoff after no single candidate received more than 50% of votes in the May 7 local election.

In the Place 3 race, Juan Alanis and David McDonald are vying for the seat on City Council. McDonald received 43.1% of the vote during the May 7 election, while Alanis garnered 23.48%.

In the Place 5 race, incumbent Chris Czernek and challenger Bill Louden advanced to the runoff with 43.49% and 29.68% of the May 7 vote respectively.

Where to vote



Because Leander spans two counties, registered voters must vote at the polling location that corresponds to the county they are registered in.

Williamson County will have two election day voting locations: the Leander Public Library Annex at 1011 S. Bagdad Road.; and the Pat Bryson Municipal Hall at 201 N. Brushy St.

Registered voters in Travis County can vote at Whitestone Elementary School at 2000 Crystal Falls Parkway.

Voting locations for both counties will be open from 7 a.m.-7 pm.
