CARDINAL NEWS: 3 Democratic candidates for Lynchburg City Council launch campaigns
Lynchburg community leaders Christina Delzingaro, Dave Henderson and Nathaniel “Nat” X. Marshall on Tuesday announced they will run as Democratic candidates for the city council seats that are up for grabs this November.
The Lynchburg City Council, currently with a 6-1 Republican majority, consists of three at-large representatives and four ward representatives. The at-large positions, currently held by Republican Mayor Larry Taylor and Republican council members Marty Misjuns and Stephanie Reed, will be on the ballot this year.
The Lynchburg Republican City Committee has not yet announced its candidates or nomination process for the open at-large seats. If the party has more than three candidates seeking the nomination, it’ll likely hold a primary.
