Days after Tuesday’s special election, the City Council race of the 3th District 3 of San José has become a confrontation for second place and with the thin margins of shaving, it is likely that a recount determines the candidate who will face Gabby Chavez-Lopez.

“We are at full speed in runoff,” said Chavez-López on Friday. “What we have to do our legs, and the message we have on the legs sharing, is clearly resonating with voters, so we are focused on continuing that impulse.”
But the distance between Matthew Quevedo, the deputy director of the Cabinet of the Mayor of San José, Matt Mahan, and the candidate of Darkhorse Anthony Tordillos to join a runoff remains a vote, with his place in the hierarchical order that turns several times and giving a true meaning to the old saying: “Each vote counts.”
“We are funny for all the voters who supported our campaign for the commons pillars and thank the electoral officials who work so hard to complete a total and final count of the votes,” said Quevedo.
Together with Chávez-López, Quevedo and Tordillos, those who sought to happen to Torres included Pro Tem Judge and former candidate for the Irene Smith City Council, the agent of the Law withdrawal Adam Duran, the Minister of Family withdrawn Dollan. Smith is following fourth place with 16 percent of the votes in the last voting results published by the Santa Clara County voters registrar.
Experts had always thought that Chávez-López, Quevedo and Tordillos were among the main contestants for the seat, which seemed predestined to end in a runoff from the experience of the candidates and the field full of people.
Although Chávez-López has been in charge of the pack, his successful campaign has only ensured that he continues in the race, since the two main voters will face June 24.
With the power of the Labor Council of South Bay, Chávez-López, a reputation has been built as a coalition builder and has focused its campaign on improving safety and cleanliness, increasing the density of housing and Sucherfeste deverpent, ensuring, ensuring the center of the center.
Queveedo, who has won 22.18% of the votes, has reflected the conversation points of Mahan, framing his candidacy as a rest of the establishment’s policy while trying to produce real and tangible results in addressing homeless neighborhoods, increasing the economy and building more homes. He has also defended several of Mahan’s most recent initiatives, including the proposal to “take refuge”, considered controversial for somewhere, which led experts to believe that Qedo’s performance in the elections was a referendum on such policies.
“He created a referendum on the agenda only because of the way he has campaigned,” said Bob Staedler, consultant for the use of the Earth and former candidate for the appointment of District 3. “He misrepresents that” we are strangers and we are not the establishment. “When you live in a nuanced world, the facts tend to get a bit confusing.”
However, Dr. Melinda Jackson, a politics professor in the State of San José and resident of District 3, was not ready to make that statement with the races still in flow.
Jackson said that, although he hoped that Chávez-López and Quevedo end up in the top two places, Smith probably directed some votes that would have gone to Quevedo.
“If it comes thirdly, then you are definitely saying that in this district, people are not complete aligned with the mayor,” Jackson said.

The Santa Clara County voters registrar will continue to accept the tickets by mail before April 15, provided they were in Matacas before April 8. The results will be certified before April 28.
If the race remains so tight, it could trigger a count. The county policy requires an automatic review for competitions with a margin of victory less than .25% or where that margin is less than 25 total votes.
Although state and federal careers are not subject to the County policy, in the Congress race last year to replace Anna ESHOO, Evan Low defeated the Santa Joe Simitian County supervisor in the primary after a count broke Sasme forming Himer Tinger Sorming Liccardo.
With the low propensity of the district to vote and the runoff does not take place in a presidential year, Jackson said he did not expect a significant increase in participation in June.
Jackson said that the new votes remains to be seen and that the candidates who did not advance could go in the next round, especially for the most conservative residents in the progressive district, and the result could become more coptuo.
“They may feel that they cannot support any of the candidates,” Jackson said. “Others can keep their nose and vote for what they think is the least objectable.”
While there is still uncertainty about how the final confrontation will be, Chávez-López said that, regardless of the challenger that Antkes on April 28, it will be nothing about the focus of his campaign.
“We are focused on connecting with as many voters as possible, especially those who supported other candidates this time,” said Chávez-López. “I hope to win your trust and your vote in runoff. I am also anxious to deepen the issues that matter most to our residents.”
