Beaumont's mayoral race to be decided in runoff election

W.L. Pate, LaShon Proctor and Biguita Hernandez-Smith were also in the ruining for mayor.
Becky Ames, who has led the city since 2007, announced in January she would not be seeking an historic eighth term in office. 
"The support for another campaign in 2021 has been extremely strong," Ames said at a January news conference. "However, I have made the bittersweet decision and am announcing today that I will not seek reelection to another term as your mayor in the upcoming election."  
She is the longest-serving mayor in Beaumont's history and has led the city's recovery from Harvey and Imelda.
Ames' decision not to run opened the field up to a packed field. Here's a little about each of the five candidates aiming for the position.
