Feeling envy for Ward 3


People like to disparage Flint Hill, but the neighborhood has something those of us who live along Dabney Drive can’t help but be jealous of: candidates for City Council. As part of Ward 3, Flint Hill has a contest for the ward seat between Garry Daeke and Marty Gister and the likelihood of the powerhouse matchup of the Oct. 11 elections, John Wester (who has filed) against Elissa Yount (who hasn’t yet). Ward 2 has at-large incumbent Mike Rainey and … no one. Ward 4 has at-large incumbent Ranger Wilkerson and … no one. Ward 1, like Ward 3, has three candidates who have filed: incumbents Mary Emma Evans and Bernard Alston and Evans challenger Glean Henderson Jr. Why are we telling you things you already know? No one filed for office again today.
