A little late in the game but we're here now. Starting Tues 7/27/21, for the next three days, the KIT Morning News will be featuring interviews with the candidates for three open Yakima City Council seats in Districts 2, 4, & 6. On Friday the District #3 Yakima County Commissioner Candidate race will be featured.
What that means is if you live in one of those districts you'll get a primary ballot in the mail, if you live in districts 1,3,5, or 7, you won't...so don't be alarmed.
District #2 Recent History
