The move had a domino effect on Born's chances. Before the meeting, Braude told Reeves he would support him if Born was not elected mayor on the first ballot.
"He only agreed to vote for me for one ballot," Reeves says. "It was not clear where he was headed."
In the first vote of the evening at 8:30 p.m., Decker left the Born camp, aligning herself with Reeves, who changed his vote from Sullivan to himself.
The council first had to have a second round of voting. In the second ballot at 11 p.m., Braude followed through on his promise to acting mayor Reeves and switched his vote to him, making him the new leader with three votes.
Around midnight, as the council recessed to await clarification on parts of the Linear Park downzoning petition in North Cambridge--Galluccio's home neighborhood--Decker and Reeves suddenly switched allegiances again.
