With 50.6 percent of the vote, Morrell just barely avoided a runoff against his top challenger, Democrat District C City Councilwoman Kristin Gisleson Palmer, who was first elected to her District C seat in 2010. She declined to run for reelection in 2014 but returned in 2017 by defeating another Democrat incumbent, Nadine Ramsey. As councilwoman, Palmer helped to lead the effort to reform the city’s short-term rental rules to make them much more restrictive than they were under the second term of [[Mayor]] [[Mitch Landrieu]], who now serves in the [[Joe Biden]] presidential administration as the director of "infrastruce bill" funding.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://thelensnola.org/2021/11/14/morrell-wins-hotly-contested-at-large-council-seat/|title=Morrell wins hotly contested at-large council seat|publisher=thelensnola.org|date=November 14, 2021|author=Michael Isaac Stein|accessdate=November 17, 2021}}</ref> e
