Mayor Pro Tem Craig Brown defeated former Mayor Roger “Bo” Quiroga, 3,726 to 3,182 votes in last week's heated Galveston runoff election, reports the Galveston Daily News.
Brown went from councilman, to mayor pro tem, to acting mayor, to now Mayor. Incumbents held onto their positions in Districts 3 and 5.
It was a heated race in which accusations flew between the candidates, and the county Republican Party had taken the rate position of publicly taking sides in a non-partisan race, supporting Quiroga in his ill-fated comeback attempt.
