Young Julian Castro Faces Veteran Opponent In San Antonio Mayoral Runoff
San Antonio, Texas, heads to a June runoff after councilman Julian Castro led the mayoral race with about 42 percent of the vote, while former Texas appeals judge Phil Hardberger trailed. Castro, 30, argues his lead proves readiness to run the eighth largest US city, while Hardberger touts experience. The runoff follows a campaign noted for the humorous twin brother moment and the “Twingate” jokes. In Dallas, residents rejected a proposal to expand mayoral power, with roughly 62 percent voting against changing the city charter.
