Bronson Again Increases His Lead Over Dunbar A Bit, But Progressive School Board Members Increase Their Leads

 I know, you're getting bored with me adding more numbers each night.  This is called lazy man's blogging.  The Election Office supplies numbers and I just put them up in the chart.  Is there any value added over what you get from other media?  At least here you can see how each new tally changes the vote.  But I hope there aren't too many more because I'm running out of room.  I'm going to have to shorten the names to make more space.  

Because of the space issue and also because the rankings didn't change, I didn't include rankings today.  

Every candidate got at least one more vote!

Bronson increased his lead by 118 over Dunbar.  But the progressives increased their leads in all the School Board races.  The mayor's race has three progressive candidates.  Their combined increase was 2,691.  The two far right candidates - Robbins and Bronson increased their votes by 2394.  The third major candidate - Bill Evans - is harder to peg.  He's been a conservative, but Bronson has blasted him for what Bronson saw as liberal actions such as supporting an LGBTQ ordinance.  So it's not clear how his 551 count in this race.  I'd guess most might go to Bronson, but a significant number would go to Dunbar.  

In any case, the runoff will again be a mail-in election (with some in-person voting options) and it will end May 11.  Dunbar and Bronson will be the candidates.  To have Dunbar trailing in the general election is likely to spur his supporters to the polls.  But Bronson's supporters, seeing him ahead, may also be motivated to vote.

In the School Board races the progressive candidates increased their leads with this new batch of votes.  That's a change from the last couple of nights.

Kelly Lessens increased her lead over Judy Norton Eledge  to 275.  Yesterday it was down to 92 votes.  .
Pat Higgins increased his lead over Sami Graham to 414.  Yesterday it was 174.  
Dora Wilson increased her lead over Kim Paulson to 6,862. Yesterday it was 6,338.   This is the biggest lead anyone has.  
And Carl Jacobs increased his lead to 1,510 from 1,299 yesterday.  Carl also got the most votes of any individual candidate, but that's basically because there were only two candidates in the race.
