Elections: Showdown April 13 in Burnet County GOP runoff
BURNET — The Burnet County elections administrator is reminding voters a Republican runoff is April 13 between two candidates vying for the Burnet County district clerk seat.
Sheila Frazier, court coordinator for the 33rd state District Court, will face Chief Deputy District Clerk Casie Wills for the position.
The winner will take on Democratic challenger Cynthia Chisolm during the Nov. 2 midterm election.
