Tulsa Mayor Dewey Bartlett and former mayor Kathy Taylor are heading to the November ballot in the city’s first nonpartisan mayoral election.
The Tulsa World reports that Taylor had a secure lead Tuesday night over the incumbent, and former City Councilor Bill Christiansen was a distant third.
With 196 of 196 precincts reporting, the State Election Board showed Taylor with 24,495 votes, to Bartlett’s 19,937 and Christiansen’s 13,476. The other two candidates just over 300 votes combined.
