Brown - Please concede.The results are in, and it is my opinion that for the sake of the City, its taxpayers and its sanity, Steve Brown should concede a runoff election and save everyone the time and effort (and cost of a runoff). Mr. Brown - 93% of the precincts are reporting, and nearly 6000 people DID NOT VOTE FOR YOU. While there was not a statistical majority for one person, the for/against vote is profoundly telling - 79% of those who voted for mayor DIDN'T VOTE FOR YOU. Assuming that the votes for Boswell, Tennant, and Thompson go to Logsdon, you would only have 1642 votes (I took out the 14 that wrote in others, since they didn't want anybody on the list and gave you Arterburn's). Assuming the votes for the other candidates just go away entirely (which they won't), you'd still lose handily. Please do the entire city a favor. Call Harold Logsdon, tell him he is the victor. Call a press conference and announce you are not going to seek reelection. Then we can all return to our quiet lives. The people have spoken - they want you gone.
