How Are Things Shaping Up in the ANC1A Election
Nominating petitions for those interested in running to serve on an Advisory Neighborhood Commission became available on July 11th and must be turned in at the Board of Elections by close of business on August 10th. As of July 27th, there were still four Single Member Districts within ANC1A where no one had picked up petitions yet. The SMDs in question are 1A02, 1A03, 1A11, and 1A12 (see map below). All of these SMDs are in Columbia Heights.
In five of the SMDs (1A01, 1A05, 1A06, 1A08, and 1A10), only one candidate is currently circulating petitions. Interestingly, three SMDs show potential for having a competitive race this November — 1A04, 1A07, and 1A09.
Below is the current list of potential candidates as of yesterday.
