The Richardson City Council must canvass the election returns before they are official. The canvass will take place at the May 10 City Council meeting at 6 p.m. Please note that the final numbers may change slightly once all mail-in and provisional ballots are counted. In addition, because no candidate for Place 6 received a majority of the vote, the top two vote-getters in that race will take part in a runoff election June 5 (see story below).
