âWhen people asked if I needed an umbrella I just told them that it didnât bother me â Iâm an old retired Army guy,â said Spradley, who defeated Joy Harvey by 47 votes to win in his first try at elective office.
Others scoring big wins Saturday included District 3 Council Member Harry Bowers, who coasted to an easy reelection victory, Steve Minus, who will succeed four-term retiring incumbent Sherry Harrison as New Braunfels ISDâs District 5 trustee, and Courtney Biasatti, who defeated District 2 Trustee and Comal ISD board President David Drastata, who was seeking a fifth term.
All 18 city charter propositions also passed in unofficial election totals, which indicated 3,269 voters, or 3.89% of 84,034 eligible, participated in at least one of Comal Countyâs five elections, which also included city council races in Garden Ridge and Bulverde.
The largest field of candidates and issues since 2003 await New Braunfels voters, who on Saturday will select city council and charter amendments and New Braunfels and Comal independent school district trustees.
Comal County elections include mayoral and city council races in Garden Ridge and Bulverde, with Guadalupe County voters selecting city council members in Marion and school district trustees in LaVernia, San Marcos and Prairie Lea, which also features a bond measure.
Despite 14 candidates on local ballots, early voting was slow between April 19 and Tuesday. Elections Administrator Cynthia Jaqua said just 3,295 votes were cast at six county polling sites and 343 received through the mail as of Thursday.

Intermittent downpours might have kept many registered voters from casting ballots for candidates and issues in five May 1 elections, but officials are expecting many more during the final three days of early voting.
âThis is the cityâs first contested (May) election since 2012 â without them, it would really be slow,â Comal County Elections Administrator Cynthia Jaqua said of the 1,722 votes cast at polls and through the mail since the nine-day early voting period began Monday.Â
Jaqua said 84,034 of nearly 118,000 total registered voters are eligible to help decide races for New Braunfels, Comal and Marion school district trustees, city council members in New Braunfels, Garden Ridge, Bulverde and Marion, and 18 proposed amendments to New Braunfelsâ city charter.
