Here’s what to know:
Ms. Wiley and Ms. Garcia however have a path — a challenging one.
If Ms. Wiley helps make it to the ultimate round of the rated-choice playoff method and is ranked ahead of Mr. Adams on about 60 % of all ballots in which neither is rated to start with, she could be victorious.
Ms. Garcia would have to have to do the very same by a few share details more to earn.
People scenarios are not in particular probably. Mr. Adams’s level of popularity among the voters who did not rank him initial would require to be particularly low, and at minimum 1 poll right before Key Working day proposed that was not the scenario.
Wait, what about the uncounted ballots?
A lot of first-round votes continue to have not been tallied: in-human being votes from about 15 percent of precincts and tens of thousands of absentee ballots.
The ballots would need to overwhelmingly favor one contender to swing the election, but could go the candidates closer to or even further from one a further.
A comeback has took place in advance of.
Some supporters of Ms. Wiley or Ms. Garcia cite a mayoral contest in Oakland, Calif., to justify optimism.
In that city’s 2010 race, Don Perata, the former head of the California Condition Senate, led his opponent, Jean Quan, by 8.7 proportion details after the initial round. But Ms. Quan garnered 68 p.c of the votes from ballots that outlined neither of the two candidates to start with.
She narrowly gained.
But Ms. Quan and a further progressive applicant, who completed third, experienced endorsed each individual other and rallied towards position Mr. Perata on the ballot. Ms. Garcia and Ms. Wiley did not form an alliance with every other.
A successful late surge is rare.

No 1 trailing by 10 details has ever been victorious.
