Write-In Candidate Leads for Buffalo Mayor

A new WIVB/Emerson College poll finds that if the Buffalo mayoral election was held today, a majority of likely voters say they would vote for incumbent mayor Byron Brown over Democratic nominee India Walton, 50% to 40%.

Brown is running as a write-in candidate after losing the June primary election to Walton in a shocking upset.

However, Walton will be the only candidate actually listed on the ballot on Nov. 2.
