Who's Running for Lake Forest Park City Council in 2013
All but one of the four seats up for election have been vacated by the incumbents and all but one are contested races.
With three of four Lake Forest Park Council seats wide open in this election, every race is contested except Council Position No. 3, which incumbent John Wright seeks to retain.
Until filing week, some of the candidates who had announced plans to run declined to say which seat they would seek, but after Friday's filing deadline, the race is set:
City of Lake Forest Park Council Position No. 1
Jason Colberg
Hilda Thompson
City of Lake Forest Park Council Position No. 3
John Wright
City of Lake Forest Park Council Position No. 5
Edgar Escandar
Mark Phillips
City of Lake Forest Park Council Position No. 7
Alan Kiest
John Resha
On Thursday evening, 46th District Democrats met to make endorsements in the race, endorsing Thompson, Phillips, and Resha, and making no endorsement for Position No. 3.
