Two South Bay mayors’ races remained too close to call Monday, almost a week after the Midterm Elections.
Santa Clara County election workers counted thousands more ballots, votes that will ultimately decide the tight San Jose mayoral race between Cindy Chavez and Matt Mahan.
While Mahan continued to lead over the weekend, Chavez narrowed the gap considerably. And as of 6 p.m., they are separated by just 4,256 votes.

In Santa Clara, there was an even closer mayoral race between Lisa Gillmor and Anthony Becker. Gillmor is ahead by 571 votes.
