Sheriff Javier Salazar and Nathan Buchanan (KSAT)

Precinct 1 Bexar County Commissioner Rebeca Clay-Flores was unable to avoid a runoff in a very crowded Democratic primary. It appears she’ll be facing Amanda Gonzalez on May 28. On the Republican side, Lina Prado was unopposed.

“We have brought better transparency to the commissioner’s court,” Clay-Flores told KSAT reporter Patty Santos on Tuesday night. “More people know about us, the county commissioners.”

Precinct 3 Bexar County Commissioner Grant Moody was able to hold off challenger Chris Schuchardt by about 6 percentage points in the GOP runoff. Susan Korbel was unopposed on the Democratic side, so she’ll face Moody in November.
