How we got here
In March, Thacker and Burridge were the top vote-getters in the original primary race for the seat. Mike Meadors and Ted Broaddus were also on the ballot.
However, since none of the candidates received more than 50% of the total vote, a runoff was triggered.
In a Q&A submitted to Community Impact in January, Thacker said he wanted to advocate for Brazoria County employees, while Burridge said he wanted tax relief, transparency and term limits.
All results are unofficial until canvassed.
