What to know about the candidates for 3 Glendale council seats

Early voting in Arizona’s primary election is here, as ballots were mailed out on July 3.

Glendale voters will get to pick councilmembers in three districts — Cactus, Sahuaro and Yucca. Citywide, voters will have a say in Glendale’s uncontested mayoral election.

Incumbent Mayor Jerry Weiers is running unopposed for a fourth consecutive term. Former Councilmember Jamie Aldama had challenged Weiers for the seat but was forced to withdraw from the race after his campaign failed to collect enough signatures to qualify for the ballot.

Like the mayoral election, the Sahuaro District race will also be uncontested with the incumbent, Councilmember Ray Malnar, returning to office. Voters in the Cactus and Yucca Districts will have pairs of candidates from whom to choose.
