The social conservative bloc on the State Board of Education suffered another setback Tuesday when former educator Marsha Farney of Georgetown beat Austin lawyer Brian Russell - the choice of social conservatives - to claim the GOP nomination for an open seat on the board.

Farney crushed Russell in the runoff, capturing about 62 percent of the vote.
