Early voting has begun in the June 10 council runoff elections, and Community Impact Newspaper is committed to helping voters research the candidates and find times and places to vote.

Two Plano City Council seats will be determined by runoffs this year after no candidate in either race cleared the 50 percent threshold in the May 6 election. The top two vote-getters in each race have advanced to a runoff. These council seats are elected at large, meaning any Plano resident who is registered to vote can weigh in on the outcome.

Bookmark this page as a reference. Here, you will find a collection of candidate questionnaire responses, dates and times when polls are open, and a list of voting centers throughout Plano.

Candidates Ann Bacchus and Anthony Ricciardelli will square off in a runoff election for a seat on the Plano City Council.

The two candidates, both of whom would be newcomers to the council, received the highest vote totals in the May 6 election. Candidate Al Valente came in third place and did not qualify for the runoff.

Before the May 6 election, Community Impact Newspaper sent the candidates a questionnaire on their background and what they plan to do, if elected. Click on the names below to read each candidate’s responses.





CITY COUNCIL PLACE 8

Incumbent councilman David Downs will face challenger Rick Smith once more after the two candidates garnered the most votes in the May 6 election.

Smith received more votes than Downs in May, but did not clear the 50 percent mark required to avoid a runoff vote. Fellow challenger Stirling Morris came in third place in May, and did not qualify for the runoff.

As with the other races, these candidates responded to a questionnaire before the May 6 elections on their respective qualifications and platforms. Read their responses at the links below.
