With Thursday night's filing deadline it is off to the races for candidates vying for city and school board elected offices in Trotwood. Some familiar names and some new ones will pepper the November ballot.
Current Mayor Donald McLaurin is running for reelection. Two current city council members Darreyl Davis and Joyce Sutton Cameron are challenging him.
Also on the ballot this fall are two at-large seats on the council bench. Barbara Staggs is seeking reelection along with four newcomers. Getting their filings complete by the deadline were Bettye Gales, Hampton Johnson Jr, Mark Landis, and Freeman Ward. Besides Trotwood, several other area communities are lining up candidates for city council. Centerville, Miamisburg, Oakwood, and Riverside each have at least 5 candidates in their races.
On the Trotwood-Madison school board Vanessa Jeter-Freeman and Craig Ross are both running unopposed for re-election. The county board of elections will review the petition signatures in the next few days and expects to certify candidates as soon as next week.
