Three Glendale City Council incumbents seeking re-election and two challengers answered questions from the public during a candidate forum Wednesday, Aug. 8 at the Glendale Women’s Club, at the corner of 56th Avenue and Glenn Drive.

Coalitions have begun to form as the two challengers have been endorsed by the mayor and some sitting council members. Both challengers voiced support for each other during the forum and one incumbent encouraged a vote for all incumbents.

Ray Strahl is challenging incumbent Bart Turner to represent the Barrel District. Emmanuel Allen is challenging Jamie Aldama to represent the Ocotillo District. Vice Mayor Laurent Tolmachoff is running unopposed for the Cholla District.
