Voting's going better than normal ahead of Tuesday's Denver runoff for mayor and three City Council
Denverites are voting at higher rates than they did, at this point, in every municipal election in the past 12 years — including in April, with there were 17 candidates on the ballot.
This is the first time there hasn’t been an incumbent running for mayor since Michael Hancock took office in 2011.
At stake: a runoff for the city’s next mayor between Kelly Brough and Mike Johnston.
Record campaign contributions have poured into that race. Johnston’s supporters have contributed more than $4 million, outspending Brough’s nearly four-to-one, in reported campaign contributions to both the candidates and the independent expenditure committees backing them.
