SAN ANTONIO – Five races across San Antonio will have runoff elections
including the highly anticipated race to succeed Ron Nirenberg as mayor
placing second among 27 contenders for mayor
Jones and Pablos will face off in a June 7 election
>> What happened in the San Antonio mayor, City Council election on May 3, 2025
“We have a tremendous poverty problem,” Pablos said
“I believe that a lot of the ills that we have today
like crime and homelessness are rooted in poverty
we need to once and for all make a decision that as a community
“Making sure we are focused and using data to make smart investments where we must and certainly bringing more transparency to how city dollars are being spent in our community – those are the things that are top of mind,” Jones said
Jones gained additional traction online Saturday evening after leaving her watch party for Fiesta without taking questions from reporters on the way out
KSAT’s Garrett Brnger attempted to ask Jones questions after she delivered a brief speech about the results. However, she turned around and returned to her watch party
Brnger later tried to ask questions again but was told Jones was heading out to enjoy Fiesta
In a separate interview with Jones on Sunday following election night
KSAT reporter Zaria Oates asked her about transparency and the social media conversation regarding how to reach her after the election
and we were proud to celebrate the moment together,” Jones said
we were proud to celebrate that as a team.”
KSAT asked both Pablos and Jones about transparency with the press and voters moving forward
we are perfectly transparent with our community,” Pablos said
“I would think any question that I’ve been asked
KSAT also asked how each candidate differs from the other
“Gina Ortiz is someone who does not represent the values of San Antonio
and we believe that the people of San Antonio will see that.”
“I think I have the most leadership and management experience in this race,” Jones said
“As the former Under Secretary of the Air Force
so I look forward to bringing that service and leadership to our community.”
runoff elections will also take place for four district races: District 1
According to the Bexar County Elections Office on Sunday
there may also be a request to recount votes in District 6
led her first-ever election for the county and set a record
marking the quickest vote count in county history for the May 2025 election

The contest to succeed John Courage in District 9 did not end with a clear winner on Saturday night
Misty Spears and Angi Taylor Aramburu were the top two vote-getters
they will face off in the June runoff election
Term limits meant Courage could not run for re-election again
District 9 runs roughly from Loop 410 past Loop 1604 on either side of Highway 281
Aramburu told TPR she has a plan in place if she wins the runoff election
“I'm hoping to keep some key players from John Courage's staff
so we're ready to go on day one with people that know the district
and so we can hit the ground running,” she explained
She said she hopes to continue the city council’s largely non-partisan politics
We want to make sure we're taking care of your needs
and listening to what you need and being responsive,” Aramburu said
Misty Spears did not respond to TPR's requests for comment or reaction to the election result
On Friday, the San Antonio Spurs announced that Gregg Popovich will no longer coach the team and is transitioning to a full-time role as president of basketball operations
Popovich, 76, ends his coaching tenure as the league's career wins leader with 1,422 regular-season victories and has five championships and an NBA record-tying three Coach of the Year awards. Enter Mitch Johnson, who was named acting head coach after Popovich suffered a mild stroke in November and will now take over coaching duties on a permanent basis
The Spurs were determined that Popovich had earned the right to decide when the time was right to step away
Popovich was adamant that he would come back only if he felt he could physically do the job
saying in recent years that he felt invigorated by working with young players eager to learn
Popovich decided he needed to shift into a supportive role with Johnson
whom he was very fond of and high on as his successor
There is relief and clarity. Popovich was definitely mulling continuing to coach these past few months, which is why his announcement that he wouldn't return during the season didn't say anything about his future. But he is NBA royalty and there was concern about the legendary coach's health. After an incident recently that required a trip to the hospital
there was even more concern for Popovich's well-being
The Spurs have been left in an excellent place by Popovich
but it is also fair to say one of his greatest accomplishments was leaving the position with a clean contingency plan
"He took a lot of losses over the last few years that he didn't have to take; it was a very unselfish act," one veteran league executive told ESPN
but the next generation of the team has his fingerprints on it."
In addition to being willing to take the hardest steps in a rebuild in his last years in the job
Popovich helped create and maintain a renowned culture
Many organizations over the years tried to duplicate it by raiding Popovich's front office and coaching staff
That culture will carry on long after his departure from the position
as Johnson steadily got more responsibilities in his time on the bench
even before Johnson was named acting head coach
that Popovich would have him draw up late-game strategy in huddles
Over the years there were many assistants who were viewed as some undefined "head coach in waiting" in San Antonio
That's because Popovich believed in developing assistants like he developed young players
by identifying them and nurturing those who he felt had high potential
and it never was because the Spurs handled all their business cleanly and quietly
it would've been viewed as one of the best in the league
As soon as word got out that Popovich was stepping down as coach but staying on as president
the league knew Johnson was very likely going to be the pick
Sometimes keeping things in the family in the NBA is problematic
Popovich has always valued that and protected that
when the Spurs started vetting Murray during the draft process (2016)
Johnson quickly caught the organization's attention for his coaching and communication acumen and brought him aboard as an assistant with the club's G League affiliate Austin Spurs
"One thing we said when he came and got me out of juvenile when I was 15 was
'We are in this together,'" Murray told ESPN of Johnson
we're going to put in all this damned work and we're going to see where the work takes us
we never knew all these things were going to happen or how things would happen
Johnson advanced quickly through the organization and has spent the past six seasons as an assistant under Popovich
including five years at the front of the bench after a 2020 promotion
The son of former two-time NBA All-Star and 1979 champion John "J.J." Johnson, Mitch Johnson was an accomplished player in high school (two state championships at O'Dea High School in Seattle, where he averaged 22 points and eight assists as a senior) and college at Stanford, where he was a four-year starter playing alongside Brook Lopez
they nicknamed Johnson "Maestro" due to the "the way he conducts and runs the show."
"Seeing him in the position he's in now is not a shock
"[He's] such an intelligent basketball player
the highest basketball IQ I've ever played with or been around."
Gregg Popovich has stepped down as the head coach of the San Antonio Spurs
Here's everything you need to know about his legendary career
Within the Spurs organization, Johnson impressed Popovich, Spurs CEO RC Buford and GM Brian Wright with the way he navigated a tumultuous season in the wake of Popovich's stroke and the club shelving Wembanyama due to a blood clot issue in his shoulder
Johnson's leadership never wavered in adverse situations during weeklong trips to New York and Paris
not to mention Los Angeles during the wildfires
His words always resonated in the locker room
San Antonio's players consistently competed for Johnson
and it didn't go unnoticed among the franchise's decision-makers
"I trust the organization," Wembanyama said
"I also trust Mitch to grow into that role
I think we are in good hands supporting each other throughout the organization."
Getting clarity at head coach was the top priority on the Spurs' to-do list
The focus now shifts to the lottery. The Spurs not only have their own first-round pick but also a first from Atlanta. (San Antonio has a 6% chance of moving up from No. 8 to the top spot, while Atlanta's is 0.7%.) As for the roster, 10 players are under contract, led by back-to-back Rookies of the Year in Victor Wembanyama and Stephon Castle
From the play-in tournament to the NBA Finals
ESPN has you covered throughout the playoffs
One date to circle on the Spurs' calendar is Aug. 3. That is the first day Fox can sign a four-year $229 million max extension. And keep an eye on Chris Paul's future
After signing a one-year deal last offseason
Paul played all 82 games for the second time in his career and is set to enter free agency
The 2026 postseason is a reasonable expectation
and falling short of the playoffs might be something of a disappointment
The Spurs were 21-25 this season in the 46 games Wembanyama played
just five of which came alongside Fox between San Antonio's blockbuster midseason trade and Wembanyama being sidelined with deep vein thrombosis
Slow-playing Wembanyama's development allowed the Spurs to add Castle with the No
4 pick last June and another lottery pick this year
but with the arrival of Fox and the future picks San Antonio has stockpiled
now is the time to start getting those young players experience in high-intensity games
Only Kobe Bryant, Luka Doncic, Dwight Howard and LeBron James have been voted All-NBA before age 21.5
something Wembanyama was on track to achieve before falling short of the 65-game minimum due to his absence
All of those players made their playoff debuts by their third seasons in the league
with Howard and James both breaking through in Year 3
SAN ANTONIO – While on a rehabilitation assignment for a hamstring injury
San Diego Padres outfielder Jackson Merrill is back in San Antonio
The 2024 MLB All-Star played his first game of the season with the San Antonio Missions on Saturday
helping the Missions snap a three-game losing streak to the Corpus Christi Hooks
Merrill’s efforts contributed to a comeback win over the Hooks
KSAT asked Merrill before Sunday’s game whether being back in San Antonio had helped center his focus and deepen his appreciation for the game of baseball
“I’m so wired differently that if you say the word baseball or I see a baseball or I hear a crack of bat or anything
I just want to see it happening because I just love this game
and I want more of it for the rest of my life.”
Merrill continued to express his deep commitment to the sport and the joy of returning to San Antonio
so coming back here and just seeing how the energy is so up and everybody’s having a great time
that makes me happy to see that it’s not just us at the big league level
it’s everywhere in our organization,” Merrill said
The first game of the series is at 6:05 p.m
Air Force Under Secretary Gina Ortiz Jones and former Texas Secretary of State Rolando Pablos have advanced from a crowded field of 27 candidates to a runoff in the race for mayor of San Antonio
Ortiz Jones was not available for comment as she attended the Fiesta Flambeau parade coinciding with Election Night
"I think now that we got rid of the rest of the pack
I think we'll have a lot of allies coming on board who
So I'm very excited about that," Pablos told supporters at his Election Night watch party
Pablos has represented the Republican party at the state level and Oritz Jones has represented the Democratic party in previous congressional races
Both raised much of their campaign money from outside San Antonio and Texas
While Ortiz Jones has consistently polled at the top of the pack
"We need to work towards those things that matter
Tech entrepreneur Beto Altamirano garnered 12,178 votes — amounting to 12.05% — and District 4 Councilmember Adriana Rocha Garcia had 9,992 votes
Bexar County Elections Administrator Michele Carew reported at a Saturday afternoon press conference that voter turnout was light
Total voter turnout including Saturday's in-person votes and early voting was 9.26%
we feel like there's a lot of overshadowing by other community events and Fiesta," Carew said
San Antonio was the second largest city in America that held a mayoral election on May 3 as longtime Mayor Ron Nirenberg reached his term limit
Early voting for the runoff between Ortiz Jones and Pablos will begin on May 27
and the runoff Election Day will be June 7

SAN ANTONIO — The race for San Antonio's mayoral seat is heading to a runoff as former Under Secretary of the Air Force Gina Ortiz Jones and former Texas Secretary of State Rolando Pablos vie for the position
CLICK HERE for election results...
This election marks the first time a mayor will serve a four-year term after voters approved longer terms last November
The overall turnout for the election was just 9.26%
RELATED | San Antonio city council races see shake-up with new leadership
Ortiz Jones captured nearly 27% of the votes
maintaining her lead from early voting numbers
Because no candidates collected 50% of the vote
Ortiz Jones and Pablos will meet in a runoff election on June 7

how it's resonating all across this city
and we'll continue knocking on those doors
making those phone calls and telling people what's possible
right with the right leader leading the city," she said
“The fact that no sitting city council member finished in the top three positions tonight is a clear sign that San Antonio voters are sick of business as usual
and are ready to get down to business to secure a more prosperous future for our children and grandchildren," Pablos said in a statement
and I am confident they will reject Gina Jones for what she represents: more of the same
failed leadership from the San Antonio political machine that has left poverty rates in stagnation and caused businesses to pass over the Alamo city due to the radical
misplaced policy priorities that are completely out of line with the values of San Antonians.”
The winner of this year's election will also receive a salary increase to $87,800 per year
up from the nearly $62,000 salary previously paid to Mayor Ron Nirenberg

SAN ANTONIO - Texas regulators have ordered the emergency closure of a San Antonio massage spa following a troubling investigation into suspected human trafficking activities
The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) announced the six-month shutdown of Sweetness Spa
prohibits owner Guixan Han and Golden Phoenix Holdings LLC from operating any massage business at that site for the duration of the closure
RELATED: Texas massage parlor shut down over suspected human trafficking
The action stems from a public complaint that included screenshots and video evidence allegedly showing sexual activity occurring inside the spa
prompted a deeper investigation by TDLR officials
When investigators arrived at the location
they found several employees working without massage therapy licenses—some of whom reportedly fled the premises during the site visit
A male customer was found undressed inside the facility and quickly left once clothed
Officials also noted indicators commonly associated with human trafficking
including an unusually large number of surveillance cameras and the presence of lingerie on-site
The case marks one of the uses of new emergency enforcement powers granted to TDLR under House Bill 3579
allows the department’s executive director to issue immediate shutdowns of massage establishments where signs of trafficking are present
If you or someone you know suspects human trafficking is taking place
contact the National Human Trafficking Hotline at 1-888-373-7888 or text HELP or INFO to 233733 (BeFree)

(NYSE: CNL) (TSX: CNL) ("Collective" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that drilling assay results at the San Antonio Project's Pound target ("Pound") has resulted in the discovery of a mineralized Au-Ag-Cu-Mo porphyry system
the final assay results from the 2024 drill program at the Trap target (Guayabales Project) are reported below
Both the San Antonio and Guayabales projects are situated near to each other and to the famous multi-million-ounce Marmato Mine within the Caldas Department in Colombia
The Company currently has nine drill rigs operating as part of its fully funded 70,000-metre drill program for 2025 with two rigs at the San Antonio Project and seven rigs at the Guayabales Project
Two additional deep capacity rigs are being mobilized to the Guayabales Project and will begin testing the high-grade Ramp Zone located at the bottom of the Apollo system in early Q3
Executive Chairman commented: "Detailed surface prospecting and drilling at the San Antonio Project have substantially elevated the potential of the project to host a copper-gold rich porphyry system
Now is the time to become aggressive with drilling as our technical team believes that the SAC-11 hole at the Pound target is close to the porphyry source
With two rigs soon to be operating at Pound
we will look to vector to this source and with some luck
It is worth mentioning that the San Antonio Project enjoys excellent infrastructure as it is located directly beside the Pan American highway and hydro-power lines."
