Dan Neil concedes House race

Four months later, we can say with confidence that Rep. Donna Howard, D-Austin, is the winner of House District 48. She won by four votes.

Challenger Dan Neil threw in the towel Friday. He had appealed the election to the House, where Rep. Will Hartnett, R-Dallas, was appointed special master to oversee the contest. Evidence was presented and Hartnett said that Howard won, though not by much. The committee overseeing the election contest agreed 9-0.
