Early voting begins for runoff

Early voting in the May 26 runoff elections begins Monday and runs through Friday, May 18 to May 22.

Voting is open 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. at the Kendall County Courthouse Annex, 221 Fawn Valley Drive, across Esser Road from Boerne ISD Stadium.

On the ballot will be two Kendall County Commissioner Court seats — county judge and Precinct 2 commissioner.

Incumbent County Judge Shane Stolarcyk drew 4,292 votes in the GOP primary March 3, outdistancing challenger Ricky Gleason, who finished with 3,979 votes.

Candidate Besa Martin received 1,449 votes.

Since no candidate secured a 50% majority in the race, Stolarczyk and Gleason are headed for a runoff.

Stolarczyk received 44.16% of the vote and Gleason 40.94%.

Meanwhile, Precinct 2 Commissioner Andra Wisian drew 1,360 votes, or 47.8%, in her reelection bid March 3. She will face challenger J.C. Taylor, who ended up with 1,088 votes, or 38.24% of the ballots cast.

A third candidate, Richard Elkins, received 394 votes, or 13.4%.

No Democrat challengers filed to run, which means the winners in the runoffs will face no opponents in the Nov. 3 midterm elections.
