Keith Wilson is leading the Portland mayoral race with about 62 percent of the vote, far ahead of his competitors in the RCV tally. Current projections imply that there’s no viable route for rival candidates to catch up, solidifying Wilson's position as the mayor-elect following the record voter turnout on Election Day. The ongoing ballot counting process may still influence the final results, but Wilson’s dominance is evident in the current tallies.
The sheer volume of ballots received this election emphasizes the engaged voter base in Multnomah County, with over 132,000 ballots cast on Election Day alone. This sets a single-day record and indicates a significant turnout trend in local elections. With an anticipated overall voter turnout of 75%, the county's Elections Division is likely to see continued fluctuations in results as additional ballots are still expected to be counted.
