The top local stories this afternoon from ËÄ»¢Ó°Ôº News: Over the past week, we’ve been hearing from North Texas voters as they cast their ballots. On Thursday, ËÄ»¢Ó°Ôºâ€™s Stephanie Kuo checks in with residents in the small, rural town of Pilot Point, about 20 miles north of Denton.

Other stories this afternoon:

  • Dallas author Ben Fountain’s novel, ‘Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk,’ has gone a long way. It was his first novel, yet it became a National Book Award finalist, and now a film by Oscar-winning director Ang Lee. Each week in the Art & Seek Artist Spotlight, we explore the personal journey of a North Texas creative.

You can listen to North Texas stories weekdays at 8:22 a.m. and 6:20 p.m. on ËÄ»¢Ó°Ôº 90.1 FM.
