Denver will choose its next mayor Tuesday in a runoff election between two moderate candidates seeking to lead a rapidly growing city faced with out-of-control housing costs and increased homelessness
The city has become the tech and business hub of the Mountain West but now faces problems similar to those in San Francisco and Los Angeles.
The job of Denver mayor has launched careers, notably that of John Hickenlooper, a Democrat who went on to become Colorado’s governor and is now a U.S. senator. Another Democratic mayor, Frederico Peña, went on to become U.S. Energy Secretary under former President Bill Clinton. Johnston, who got slightly more votes than Brough in the April election, has said voters want the next mayor to do a good job of taking multiple approaches to problems.
Current Mayor Michael Hancock has run the city since 2011 and is term-limited. Legacies of his administration include the ban aimed at curtailing homelessness.
