Patty Gibbons

UPDATE AT 10:20 p.m.: Sukh Kaur has defeated opponent Patty Gibbons in the runoff race for San Antonio City Council District 1.
Kaur beat opponent Gibbons with 64.99% of the vote, with all of the votes counted.
Kaur told KSAT’s Daniela Ibarra on Saturday night, “I think we really talked to the community and shared that we want to work. And one of the things that we said is District 1 is about preserving our history while still moving our district forward.”
Bexar County Elections Administrator Michele Carew said there was a 17% voter turnout in this election. A total of 143,017 ballots were cast during eight days of early voting and on election day. Of those, 40,218 people voted on election day.
Kaur will serve a four-year term in office.
District 1 includes parts of downtown and the North Side along U.S. Highway 281.
BACKGROUND
Kaur’s campaign website highlights her priorities as enhancing streets and sidewalks, ensuring safety in neighborhoods and parks, preventing displacement, and engaging directly with small businesses.
Gibbons graduated from Woodridge High School in Northampton, Ohio. She has served as the CEO of Gibbons Surveying & Mapping for over 20 years.
Gibbons’ priorities include enhancing community safety, upgrading infrastructure, and fostering a business-friendly environment.
Following the results of the May 3 general election, Kaur spoke with KSAT about her support from voters and future plans.
“I think today’s showing demonstrates that we have a lot of support in District 1,” Kaur said. “And there’s a lot of work yet to do. We’ve learned a lot, and I think that was demonstrated in this campaign, but we also know we have the right team to lead the work forward.”
KSAT also reached out to Gibbons for comment. However, she did not provide one.
