Candidate lists for the consolidated election were unveiled in Edwardsville and Maryville Tuesday.
Mayor Hal Patton announced during the spring that he is not running for a third, four-year term as mayor. Two people filed for that seat, Stephanie Malench of Bring Your Own Glen-Ed, and Ward 7 Alderman Art Risavy. If Risavy is elected mayor, a special election will be held to fill his city council seat.
Seats in wards 2, 4 and 6 are up for grabs. In Ward 2, incumbent Jack Burns is running against newcomer Yolanda Crochrell. Aldermanic terms are for four years. The odd-numbered ward seats will be up for re-election in April 2023.
