I’m surprised Frey is first and that Hodges isn’t placed higher.

The site posts 2nd and 3rd choice rankings too.

was not very effective, and that did some real damage. I kind of expected Frey to do well, though he wasn't my first choice. None of them actually suck, though; so we should be OK.

Correction, he doesn’t lead in 3rd choice. Hodges and Levy-Pounds did better in 2nd and 3rd than in first.

Looks like Frey will be Mayor, not that I understand how they figure it.
