General Election Results 2019

After two town hall meetings and lots of campaigning, the city council election is finally behind us… Well, maybe not quite yet. One position in contention is extremely close. Helen (Dee) Cragun, incumbent, and Carla Phillips are nearly tied for Deer Park City Council Position #2. With each update from the Secretary of State, the candidates have been within a few votes of each other, though the lead has been shifting back and forth between the two candidates. Because of state laws, this small margin would trigger a mandatory machine recount after the vote has been certified. The Secretary of State has until November 26th to certify election results. These are still early results and may be subject to change.
