What voters need to know about the Grapevine-Colleyville ISD school board runoff election

Coley Canter and Tommy Snyder are vying for the Place 5 seat on the district’s board of trustees.

Grapevine-Colleyville ISD will hold a runoff election for its board of trustees this year after none of the three candidates running for the Place 5 seat received a majority of votes in the Nov. 3 election.

The runoff is scheduled for Dec. 8, but district residents can early vote starting Monday. The two candidates running in the runoff election are Coley Canter and Tommy Snyder.

In the Nov. 3 election, Canter secured 38.32% of the vote and Snyder secured 30.85%. Snyder was followed closely by candidate Lori Crenshaw, who had 30.83% of the vote and trailed Snyder by less than 10 votes.
