Election results from Denver’s Tuesday runoff showed early voters favored a trio of moderate City Council candidates over their more progressive challengers.from the City Clerk’s Office show that early voters sought to oust incumbent District 9 Councilwoman Candi CdeBaca – often the most liberal voice on the council – in favor of third-time council candidate Darrell Watson. As of 8:32 p.m., Watson held 63.5% of the vote to CdeBaca’s 36.5% with a total of 11,954 votes cast.
While the District 7 race also went to a runoff, contender Nick Campion withdrew from the race in March, leaving Flor Alvidrez to win the seat by default. Those three enjoyed the support of much of Denver’s political and business establishment. A slate of current and former council members had endorsed Watson over CdeBaca and a steady stream of mailers described her and the other liberal candidates as too extreme for Denver, even warning of a “socialist takeover.” The progressives had been endorsed by the Denver Democratic Socialists of America and the Colorado Working Families Party.
