Mesa Arizona Mayoral Run-Off Election to be Held May 20, 2008

Earlier I reported the tight race for Mesa Mayor: Mesa Mayor Race too Close to Call.

Well... here's the latest update.

The March 11 race was too close to produce a clear victor.

Claudia Walters received insufficient votes to participate in a run-off. Although she had immediately decided to recommend one opponent over the other, she has since decided to endorse Scott Smith.

Both candidates are now hoping to collect Walter's faithful- a task made more difficult since she has opted out of actively campaigning on either candidates behalf.

The run-off election will be held May 20, 2008.
