The City’s posted list gave candidate vote totals for mayor, eight councillor seats and four school-board trustee seats. The announcement described the results as unofficial and directed readers to a separate election page for the official declaration, so the listed counts are not certified results.

The City reported 26,180 ballots cast and a 24.42% turnout. The release did not provide the eligible-voter denominator or a comparison with the previous election; the percentage is reported as the City’s stated turnout.
