In the United States you're allowed to literally write anyone you want in. Not every state counts these, most states only count them if the person registers as a write-in candidate.

There was only one candidate on the ballot because it's a one-party city, the Republicans (and other minor parties) don't even run a candidate because they have no chance of winning. India Walton, Wu's candidate, beat the sitting Mayor Brown in the Democratic primary so she was the only one going forward on the ballot as a Democratic candidate. But Brown registered as a write-in. (As did three other randoms.)

So everybody got a ballot that was like:
1. India Walton (Democratic Party)
2 ________________________________

And on line 2 enough people wrote in Brown for him to win.

This has happened a few times, most notably in the Alaska Senate election of 2010 where Lisa Murkowski lost the Republican primary then ran as a write-in and won. Strom Thurmond was first elected to the Senate in 1954 as a write-in candidate as well.

ThenI guess the only question left is: If you have to register anyway, why not register as a normal candidate ?
Anyway, the democrat being beaten by a blank line on a ballot is really dumb even by socialist standards. This whole thing is really funny.

Signature requirements. To register as a regular candidate who appears on the ballot you have to be either nominated by a party with ballot access or collect enough signatures to get yourself on the ballot. A write-in can simply fill out a form and pay a fee but in return their name isn't printed on the ballot.

Usually most write-in candidates are weirdos, occasionally it's a major candidate who has been knocked off the ballot for some reason, but usually it's people who run in every election and maybe don't even get their own vote let alone other people's. Many write-in votes when there isn't a major write-in candidate are for like Mickey Mouse or Batman and they just are counted as void ballots except in states that do count everyone. A very common thing also would be people writing "None of the Above", although Nevada actually has this on their ballot. (I don't believe it's ever won and IIRC the law isn't very clear on what would happen if it did.)
 
So glad that I can daily consume the musings of top industry analyst (all the industries) John Walker Flynt.

Because he lost the primary and it was too late.

Maybe calling white men like Wu a woman is the reason why white women like me aren't going to vote for Democrats anymore. I AM ashamed ... that I ever voted Democrat.

Too bad that all of John's Twitter asslickers are full-bore retards, because his contention that stocks shouldn't fall when companies fail to meet earnings forecasts is the economic equivalent of his moon rocks imbecility.

It is, of course, symptomatic of John's witches brew of mental illnesses that he believes that Peloton stock should never fall because John buys only the best products from the best and most successful companies, and he loves owning a status symbol from Peloton.

So John adds stock market analyst to his now near endless list of imaginary qualifications. I doubt he even knows what "fundamentals" means in a market context, much less that he could name a single figure to support his bullshit.

I will give John credit for one nugget of truth amid the fog of obvious lies: if I looked like the wretched spawn of a Lovecraftian ghoul dredged up from the foulest nightmares of subterranean Boston, I too would fear being shot.

"The Beatles wuz shit, innit."

I guarantee if Wu could play even so much as chopsticks on the piano, there'd be a dozen videos on twitter of her doing it just like she does with every half baked speedrunning trick she's sort of learned.
