After provisional and mail-in ballots were tallied, the Brazos County Elections Administration released the official numbers on Tuesday for the November 3, 2026 election. While there were nine additional votes added to the totals for Bryan City Council Single Member District 2, they were split evenly among the three candidates. Unfortunately for incumbent Ray Arrington, it means his two vote deficit stands, leaving him out of the runoff for the seat. The final results are: Chrissy Ransome – 1,467 votes, 43.52% Jeannette Stewart Moseley – 954 votes, 28.27% Ray Arrington – 952 votes, 28.21% Because no candidate received 50% of the vote, Chrissy Ransome and Jeannette Stewart Moseley will move forward to a runoff election on Saturday, December 12. Early voting will take place November 30 – December 8. In College Station, there will be two runoffs for City Council. Incumbent Mark Smith and Howard Mayne will vie for Place 1. Tre Watson and Padon Holt are in the runoff for Place 5. Got a news tip? e-mail us at news@wtaw.com, text us at (979) 695-1620, or reach out on Facebook or Twitter/X.

The Navasota Junior High Principal, Mrs. Monica Guerrero, will be adding a new title. Beginning in the Spring, Guerrero will also become the district’s Executive Director of Instruction and Learning. Dr. Stu Musick, Superintendent of Navasota Independent School District made the announcement on Tuesday. Musick says the while they could have opened up the position for an external search, it was very evident that Guerrero was “the best person… and the right person… to lead our Instruction and Learning Department and the instructional leadership and improvement throughout the district was already on our team.” Guerrero is in her seventh year as principal of Navasota Junior High School and her 28th year in education. The district says there will be logistical items to figure out, but for now, here are their notes: Guerrero remains the Campus Principal at Navasota Jr. High. Guerrero will begin some of the transitional work with Mrs. Kolby, the I&L team, the Cabinet, and the Superintendent beginning immediately. NISD will be posting the NJHS Campus Principal position and begin the search process before the Thanksgiving break. The position will be posted through the Christmas holidays and close sometime probably in early January. Then, they will begin the process of reviewing applications, setting up a committee, interviews, etc. in early Spring. Final details and the start date for the new Campus Principal is still to be determined. Got a news tip? e-mail us at news@wtaw.com, text us at (979) 695-1620, or reach out on Facebook or Twitter/X.

A College Station teenager was arrested after stealing just over $200 in merchandise from a Bryan Walmart. Bryan Police responded to the store located at 643 North Harvey Mitchell Parkway around 3:30pm Monday afternoon. 19-year-old Kayden Arial McNeil was seen on surveillance video paying for only a can of Cheetos at self-checkout, but attempting to leave the store with $200.83 worth of items, including: Floor Lamp $49.26 Sconce Lamp $44.86 Spiderman clock $8.88 54×78 Brown rug $27.97 gold floor mirror $69.86 McNeil actually scanned one of the lamps and went so far as to have an associate void it, leaving only the Cheetos on her amount due. She never attempted to scan any of the other items in her cart. McNeil told officers she “was going to pay for it and that she had the money.” She is free on $3,000 bond and was issued a criminal trespass warning for the store.
