Early voting has kicked off for the El Paso City Council District 2 runoff.

Voters can cast early ballots between Wednesday, Jan 3, and Tuesday, Jan. 16, at one of four early voting locations. The election will occur Saturday, Jan. 20, with polls open from 7 a.m. until 7 p.m.

The runoff election was called after a Dec. 9, 2023 election failed to select a clear winner out of four candidates. Lawyer and activist Veronica Carbajal and El Paso Independent School District trustee Josh Acevedo will now appear on the upcoming runoff ballot.

Veronica Carbajal, president of Justicia Fronteriza, speaks at the Duranguito Pachanga on Saturday, Feb. 4, 2023, celebrating the barrio and City Council's decision not to place the arena in Duranguito.
