The Seattle Times Divided Seattle Heads to Runoff Gubernatorial Published: Wednesday, April 5th, 2079 1000 hrs By: Matthew Carter and Tan Lee Acting governor Natoko Munakata announced this morning in a special press release that the numbers from Tuesday's elections were nowhere close to the 50% majority required for the governor seat, and the two leading candidates, Nikola Taul (Democrat) and Corinne Potter (Technocratic) will head off to run-off elections that will be held on June 6th, 2079. Election Results: Nikola Taul (D) : 24.2% Corinne Potter (T) : 21.7% Katherine Choi (A) : 16.3% Charles Seaver (R) : 13.9% Alonso Solis (NC) : 9.4% Josephine Dzughashvili (I) : 7.1% Sonya Scholl (I) : 5.6% Vaneesh Ibn Kalanyr (I) : 1.5% Invalid/Other Write-in : 0.3% Polls before the election had predicted that Taul is the favoured candidate, with close to 20 years of experience in Seattle politics (she has been mayor of Downtown since 2072 and had been a district councilor since 2060), but it seems the people of Seattle hunger for change; she will have a rough road ahead of her if she is to win the governor's seat against Potter. Potter is the embodiment of change spawned from the chaos of Brackhaven's departure. Formerly the campaign manager of the original Technocratic nominee, Howard Cannon, until his untimely death, people have flocked to her down-to-earth sincerity and the fact that she is not a career politician and is able to "clean house" so to speak. She went from a political nobody to second in the polls literally overnight, and there is no saying what can stop the Potter train hype. Regardless of which candidate wins, both candidates have political leanings far away from Brackhaven. Seattle has some interesting times ahead of it in the near future.
