Make some noise during a quiet city election: Go vote
Our view
Due to the pandemic, last year s city election was bumped from May to November.
Depending on how you look at it, the incumbents who won as expected either served exceptionally long first terms or will have shorter second terms.
They certainly benefitted from turnout for a presidential election.
On May 1, Abilene residents will vote for Places 1 and 2 on the City Council.
Incumbent councilmember Shane Price faces Stephen Hunt while Place 2, open with the pending exit of Jack Rentz after one term, is a battle between Lynn Beard and Garrett Hubbard
