GEORGETOWN, Texas — Registered voters will cast ballots a second time in a run-off election for two candidates vying for Georgetown’s City Council District 2. Because neither garnered fifty percent or more of the votes cast on November 3, a run-off election has to take place. Candidates are Shawn Hood, 56, an architectural designer, and Lisa King, 54, owner of a women’s boutique.
Voter turnout for the election on November 3 was 75 percent of registered voters.
