Denver Council-Members at Large

[DavidDvorkin]

There were ten people running for two seats. What happens now? Do the top two vote getters win? Will there be a runoff between the top few, however few will be defined?

1. No runoff

Per this article from Denverite

"Serena Gonzales-Gutierrez, Penfield Tate, Travis Leiker and Sarah Parady currently lead the field in the tight City Council at-large race after the first round of results.

The at-large race does not have the option to go to a run-off, which means the top two vote getters win outright, even if they earn less than 50% of the vote.

As of now, it’s a close race between the four front-runners: Gonzales-Gutierrez leads with 18.05% of the vote, followed by Tate with 16.55%, Leiker with 15.93% and Parady with 15.86%.

“I am staying positive, I feel good about where we’re at in this race,” Gonzales-Gutierrez said."
