We now know who is running this year for the Sarasota City Commission. Mayor Willie Shaw appears to have been elected unopposed as District 1 City Commissioner, as he is the only candidate who qualified by today's noon deadline. But the contests in District 2 and 3 both will see hot contests in March, and could extend to a runoff in May. In District 2, recently appointed Commissioner Eileen Walsh Normile is challenged by attorney and for State House candidate Liz Alpert and by Sarasota Housing Authority board chairman David Lloyd Morgan. In District 3, appointed Commissioner Stan Zimmerman faces attorney and former Community Development Area advisory board member Shelli Freeland Eddie and by political activist and campaign regular Matt Wooddall. Elections will held in each District on March 10. If no candidate gets 50 percent in the March election, a runoff between the top two vote-getters will be held on May 12. |
