Folks had until yesterday to qualify for the August 25 municipal elections for Birmingham’s City Council and Board of Education. Runoffs if necessary would take place on October 6. That meant that I’ve spent most of today trying to find out how many of them have a web presence. The results follow below.
We start with the list of candidates running for City Council’s nine (9) representative seats. It starts after the jump.
BTW, no surprise, it’s a long one with 46 people qualifying by the deadline.
