Rodney Anderson (R) wins Grand Prairie City Council special election
Former Texas House representative and former Dallas County Republican Party chair Rodney Anderson won the special runoff election for Grand Prairie City Council Place 8 on Saturday.
He defeated educator and community advocate Ana Coca by 84 votes, according to unofficial results. Turnout was low, as is typical for local special elections, with only 3,934 ballots cast.
Grand Prairie’s electorate stretches across Dallas, Tarrant and Ellis counties.
Anderson wrote on Facebook Sunday, “I will have much more to say at a later time. It’s been a long day and I’m seriously thankful people cared enough to go vote.”
