Sullivan received 66 % of first place votes (with preference) and no run-off was needed. – In fact, her majpority was so strong and the rest of the field so fragmented that nobody else would have reached the 20 % quorum on either side.

Lowrey went on to win the much-lesss-contested 2020 TAFF Race, Gulde had been 3rd out of 3 in the 2017 TAFF Race and went on to win (out of 2) the 2024 TAFF Race .
