Dallas, TX –
Voters in Fort Worth now must wait until December 11 to determine who succeed Wendy Davis in representing City Council District 9. Election officials have asked for that same date for a runoff to fill the unexpired term of retiring Fort Worth lawmaker Anna Mowery in Texas House District 97. That race pits Democrat Dan Barrett against Republican Mark Shelton in a staunch GOP District, but Fort Worth Star-Telegram columnist Bud Kennedy told KERA's Sam Baker Barrett's chance are better against Shelton than some of the more moderate candidates who did not make it into the runoff.
