San Diego City Councilwoman Monica Montgomery Steppe and 'ReOpen San Diego' founder Amy Reichert are headed to a runoff election this November to become the next San Diego County District 4 Supervisor.
Montgomery Steppe, a Democrat, attorney and San Diego City Council president pro tem, increased her vote percentage from Election Day, as did Reichert, a Republican. Democrat Goldbeck and Republican Paul McQuigg, who finished fourth, saw their percentages drop since Tuesday night.
Because no candidate received a majority vote in this special election, the top two vote getters will square off in a special general election on Nov. 7 to fill the seat vacated by former Supervisor Nathan Fletcher, who stepped down following what he describes as an"inappropriate relationship" with a subordinate. The woman has alleged sexual assault and harassment, but Fletcher has denied those claims.
"Friends — there are still thousands of ballots left to count, but unfortunately, it appears that our campaign does not have a path to victory," she said."I am grateful to everyone who supported our campaign, especially those of you who spent your personal time, treasure, and talent to help us talk to voters about our vision for a brighter, better San Diego County.
Mail ballots are still coming in. Those sent right before or on Aug. 15 have seven days to arrive if postmarked by Election Day. Additionally, there are provisional ballots. People who missed the July 31 registration deadline could have conditionally registered and voted provisionally in person up to and on Election Day.
