In the San Jose City Council District 3 election, Gabby Chavez-Lopez emerged as a frontrunner with significant financial backing, achieving nearly 30% of the votes. Meanwhile, Matthew Quevedo was eliminated in a surprise upset by Anthony Tordillos, who secured a runoff spot with just 22% of the votes. The official count revealed Tordillos won by a mere six votes. Mayor Matt Mahan, who previously endorsed Quevedo, has yet to choose a side for the runoff, emphasizing the need for effective solutions to homelessness in District 3.
Total spending for the Chavez-Lopez campaign was five times greater than the spending for the Tordillos campaign.
The people have told us again and again - the status quo on homelessness is failing.
I am looking forward to hearing the remaining candidates respond and offer concrete solutions for change.
I will continue listening to debates and forums to determine my support, which could be crucial in a low-turnout special election.
