Fort Worth mayor, Arlington mayor, 6 Dallas City Council seats decided in Saturday runoff
Arlington and Fort Worth decided new mayors, and several Dallas City Council seats were up for grabs in the runoff election Saturday.
In the race for Fort Worth mayor, Mattie Parker, who was the former chief of staff to outgoing Mayor Betsy Price, beat out Deborah Peoples, the former chair of the Tarrant County Democratic Party.
Peoples received the most votes in last month's general election, but not enough to avoid a runoff.
Parker was recently endorsed by Governor Greg Abbott, while former Congressman Beto O’Rourke endorsed Peoples.
Parker replaces Price, who decided not to seek re-election after 10 years in office.

But Ross beat out Glaspie to become the city's new mayor.
