Activist knocked off ballot files as write-in candidate for Champaign council

CHAMPAIGN — After being knocked off the ballot last week for the local spring elections, activist Justin Michael Hendrix filed Monday to run as a write-in candidate to represent Champaign’s District 3. The Champaign electoral board voted 2–1 Friday to remove Hendrix from the ballot, with Councilman Tom Bruno and City Clerk Marilyn Banks voting in favor and Councilman Will Kyles against. The objection was brought by Meyer Capel attorney Rochelle Funderburg, who alleged that Hendrix failed “to have the required number of valid signatures on the nominating petitions.” Hendrix is running against attorney Matt Sullard and personal trainer Daniel Iniguez. Mayor Deb Feinen, who helped collect signatures for Iniguez, recused herself as an electoral board member for the hearing, city attorney Fred Stavins said.
