    So it is a bit more than just the Mejia vote.

    My question (do not live in Denver), does voter turn out increase or decrease in the June voting?

      I feel like there’s a better chance for more turnout in June. It’s easier to get people fired up about 2 candidates than a dozen, plus they’ll have heard about these 2 for a lot longer. It’ll be interesting to see where the new votes go. I have a feeling Hancock gets this one.

    does anyone know the minimum threshold a candidate needs to reach to make the run-off??
