BELTON ISD Board canvasses May 2 trustee election, announces vote totals
Summary
At a May 12 special meeting, the BELTON ISD Board of Trustees reviewed DS200 results and tally sheets and reported vote counts for the May 2 trustee election; a motion to approve the canvass was presented, but the transcript does not record a final vote.
The BELTON ISD Board of Trustees convened a special meeting at 7:30 a.m. on May 12, 2026, to canvass and declare results from the May 2 trustee election, the chair said. The meeting was called under Texas Act code 551.
The chair told trustees they had been provided DS200 machine results for early voting and election day, tally sheets, originals, ballots by mail and the post-election hand count audit for review. The chair read the totals presented for the at-large trustee race: "Preston — 1,129 votes; Brandon Bozone — 145 votes; Martinez — 96 votes."
The chair cited board policy BB local and board operating procedures in explaining how the results were being certified and asked for a motion "to approve the order canvassing results for the May 2nd, 2026 election as presented" and to prepare the required paperwork. A request for a second was made; the available transcript does not record a recorded vote or the meeting's final approval on the motion.
The chair also opened the public comment item and announced there were two people in the audience but that no public comments were offered. The transcript ends with procedural steps toward securing a second and further action on the motion; no further outcomes are recorded in the provided excerpt.
