This past Tuesday afternoon marked the deadline for candidates to file to run for city offices in November’s General Election, and ballot positioning for these seats was determined Thursday by random drawing. The following is a list of candidates for these positions in Columbia, Jamestown, and Russell Springs, in the order that they will appear on the ballot.
Editor’s note: The Russell Springs mayoral race is not listed because only incumbent Eddie Thomas filed to run, with no opposition. The only contested school board race is for Russell County District 2, and is listed below.
