Travis County Clerk Dana DeBeauvoir says these smaller runoff races are just as important as the races at the top of the ticket seen in November.
"City council races and school board trustee elections have more to do with your daily life and your pocketbook than the big-ticket races," DeBeauvoir said. "Even if you are a renter, city and school taxes and policy are more likely to affect your bottom line."
