Two Council Contenders Drop Out
Aldermanic candidates in the second and eighth wards have withdrawn their petitions for office, leaving those seats uncontested, the 'Evanston Review' reports.
Two candidates have withdrawn from the race for city council, according to the Evanston Review.
James C. Dyer, who was running in the second ward, and eighth ward candidate Thomas Just are now off the ballot, the Review reports.
That leaves only two seats contested in the April elections. As Patch has previously reported, Edward Tivador has filed to run against first ward incumbent Judy Fiske, while Mark Sloane is running against sixth ward incumbent Mark Tendam.
