Summary

Farmers Branch’s mayoral race ended in a nail-biting runoff, with incumbent Terry Lynne edging out challenger Jaime Rivas by just 25 votes—50.32% to 49.7%. The razor-thin margin came after neither candidate reached 50% in the initial May election, forcing a rematch. This isn’t their first showdown—Lynne won last year too, but this time, the city’s divided electorate made every vote count. Officials are now reviewing whether a recount is automatically required, keeping the outcome in suspense as the city braces for official certification.
