With about 8,200 ballots counted as of 8 p.m., Ken Wilson still held a solid lead in the 14-way race to fill the vacant seat on the Boulder City Council.

Ken Wilson 2,769
Matt Appelbaum 1,490
Angelique Espinoza 910
Eugene Pearson 475

not that I expected more than 10,000 people to vote…but still, how lame.
And will Eugene Pearson take his goofy curly hair and just do his job at BCAP instead of trying to run for city council?!?!
but why do you think Ken won above the others?
Pure and simple…Ken was the chosen candidate of the current council as well. Hell, Mark Ruzzin (da mayor) was his campaign treasurer. What “political institution” there is in Boulder was solidly behind Ken.
But yeah, when only 10,000ish people vote, the machine that is Boulder politics just keeps on rolling. 😛
