Mesa voters in the Aug. 30 primary election have choices in all three districts where council seats are up for grabs. In each race, the city’s long-term debt appears to be a big concern for most candidates.
The incumbents in Districts 1, 2 and 3 are termed out, creating the certainty that the City Council next January will take on a radically different look from the last eight years.
It is too late to register to vote in the city’s nonpartisan council elections, although registered voters have until Aug. 19 to sign up for a mail-in ballot.
