Article in the morning paper set out the vote counts in some of the elections that took place 11/6/2018, and one result stuck out. In a three person race for trustee in one of the school districts in Midland, Texas, none of them got 50% of the vote, so the top two vote will have a runoff.
According to reported results, the front runner got 2,438 votes. The next one down received 1,942 votes. The number three vote getter received 1,941 -- that's one vote difference between number two and number three.
One measly vote away from the runoff. He has to be one of the most disappointed candidate in the whole country today.
Trustee, District 5, Midland ISD
