Voters across Williamson County went to the polls Saturday to make critical decisions on who to elect for city council, mayor, and school board positions, all of which have direct control over citizens’ money. Also on the ballot were several bond propositions totaling in the hundreds of millions in new debt—some of which shockingly passed with only one total vote in the election.
In Leander, voters chose new pro-taxpayer city council members that may finally remove government barriers that have long blocked the city’s growth, while in Cedar Park, residents reelected incumbents who’ve already raised taxes and made corrupt special deals—though one of the races is facing a recount after the incumbent won by just one vote.
In Round Rock, citizens opted to give two current city council members another term, though both, like in Cedar Park, have also already voted to take more money from citizens.
