Luke Ravenstahl has won a four-year term as mayor of Pittsburgh.

With votes still being counted, the incumbent has built an apparently insurmountable lead over Independent challengers Kevin Acklin of Squirrel Hill and Franco Dok Harris of Shadyside. Mr. Acklin has conceded. Mr. Harris, who appeared headed for a distant second-place finish with 88 percent of the votes counted, had not conceded as of 9:30 p.m., and did not plan to do so until all of the votes were counted.
