Tordillos slightly widens lead to enter runoff for San Jose City Council seat
Briefly

In the District 3 City Council race, Anthony Tordillos has taken a narrow five-vote lead over Matthew Quevedo, enhancing his chances of entering a runoff against frontrunner Gabby Chavez-Lopez, who holds 29.9% of the vote. The race remains close, with candidates frequently swapping positions in the standings. The Santa Clara County Registrar of Voters indicated that 30 unprocessed mail-in ballots could still alter the outcome. An automatic recount is possible due to the tight margins, with final results set for certification by April 28.
"Chavez-Lopez has cemented her place as the leading candidate, earning 29.9% of the vote, while Tordillos has gained a five vote lead over Quevedo for second place."
"Although the race for second could still turn, it has become a virtual certainty that a runoff will occur on June 24 due to no candidate cracking the 50% threshold."
