Kristin Gaspar will serve as Encinitas’ first elected mayor, according to final returns from the Nov. 4 election.

Catherine Blakespear will take a seat on the City Council, the returns show.

Encinitas voters rejected Proposition F, a measure that sought to allow regulated medical marijuana dispensaries in the city.

With 100 percent of precincts reporting, Gaspar received a little more than 48 percent of the vote for mayor, followed by Councilman with 32 percent.

The field for Encinitas’ first elected mayor was robust, with five candidates vying for the seat. Voters opted to make the formerly ceremonial position an elected seat in November 2012. The mayor will serve a two-year term.

Gaspar and Kranz are already on the City Council, with Gaspar serving as the appointed mayor up until now. Kranz will retain his current council seat, with Blakespear joining the group. Councilwoman Teresa Barth did not run for re-election.

The results are preliminary, according to the registrar of voters, with about 180,000 absentee and provisional ballots remaining to be counted region-wide as of 1:08 p.m. Nov. 5.
