Vote transfers through the ranked choice system helped Thao make significant gains this week after Taylor jumped out ahead in early results.
OAKLAND — The fate of the city’s nail-biter mayoral election could come down to voters who waited the longest to cast their ballots and gave City Councilwoman Sheng Thao theTaylor, though, remains in the lead after latest batch of 17,187 results pushed the total ballots counted to 101,697, which likely means somewhere between 75% and 80% of the overall vote has been counted in the race to replace outgoing Mayor Libby Schaaf. But each day, Thao is closing the gap.
But Thao has also performed better on first-place votes in recent days, trimming Taylor’s lead to 2,134 votes. It’s unclear exactly why ballots cast more recently have favored Thao, since the Alameda County Registrar of Voters has not yet provided any detailed information about how the candidates performed in different precincts or council districts.
Thao has indeed often voiced support for progressive politics, earning both widespread endorsements and financial support from labor unions.
