DISTRICT 12
Joyce Sheperd raised more than $100,000 already to represent District 12 for a fifth term. She’s got four challengers, but none are quite at that level yet.
Their district represents Amal Heights, Betmar LaVilla, Blair Villa/Poole Creek, Browns Mill Park, Capitol View, Capitol View Manor, Fort McPherson, Glenrose Heights, Hammond Park, High Point, Joyland, Lakewood Heights, Oakland City, Orchard Knob, Perkerson, Polar Rock, Rosedale Heights, South River Gardens, Swallow Circle/Baywood, Sylvan Hills and Venetian Hills. AT-LARGE POSTS In addition to the 12 districts, the Atlanta City Council has three at-large posts, right now represented by Michael Bond, mayoral candidate Mary Norwood and Andre Dickens. Both Bond and Dickens look to maintain their positions, but only Dickens is running unopposed. In fact, candidate Courtney English has almost $100,000 more than Bond raised in hopes of replacing him. Matt Stephens Westmoreland received more than $140,000 in his race to win Norwood’s vacated spot. COUNCIL PRESIDENT
What would it be like if Atlanta had a gay mayor and a gay city council president? It’s a definite possibility, as Wan has the most dollars in so far to lead the council, and out mayoral candidate Cathy Woolard isn’t broke either. Fellow council members Clarence Martin and Felicia Moore are in the running against Wan. All Atlantans, regardless of which neighborhood they reside in, will be able to vote for the Atlanta council president.
