Talk:2021 Seattle mayoral election

Infobox
Infobox should not add candidates until the general election.

The infobox should only reflect the general election.

Adding primary candidates to the infobox is like, if during the 2020 presidential election, we had included all the top polling Democratic candidates in the infobox for the main article of the election, instead of just leaving it TBD who the Democratic nominee would be.

 * Seconding this. The infobox should match those used for previous Seattle elections, not what other cities with entirely different election systems use.  Sounder Bruce  02:31, 11 August 2021 (UTC)

You reverted my change of the infobox on a false premise. You cited elections in which runoff elections were held, which were held only contingent on whether or not a candidate was able to exceed a vote threshold in the first round. That is different than Seattle, where a general election follows the primary regardless of how any candidate performs in the first round. Seattle does not use a two-round system.
