Am I clear on how voting for Mayor works? We're voting in May, but if no candidate gets 50% of the vote, there will be a November runoff. But if a candidate does get 50% of the vote in May, he or she will be our next mayor. Yes?

I had no idea Brady was leading in the polls.

25% Brady
16% Hales
10% Smith
28% undecided
...does this imply 21% other?!

The poll is from February and has what I hope is a stupidly small sample (940 respondents, of whom 555 are registered to vote). Then again, I wonder how many people will actually vote for mayor.

Still, I'm surprised to see Brady in the lead. Perhaps that's why she's pathetically limiting any debates she'll take part in... to protect her lead.
