Littleton City Council
Term Limits: 12 consecutive years
All offices are 4 years, except one At-Large and the appointment of mayor
It appears that whomever receives the second-highest At-Large win percentage, receives the 2-year seat
Mayor is elected by the council for two-year terms
Mayor will be bolded
Cronyism, special interests, and Doug Clark keeps coming back
Only ONE liberal elected since 2009
Many races are either unopposed or entirely conservative.
