Two years ago, Decatur hosted two interesting and informative city commission races along with two closely watched school board races.

This year, even with three city commissioners up for re-election, all are running unopposed, according to a requested list from the City Manager of candidates who qualified prior to today’s 4:30p.

Qualifying for Decatur City Commission:

• Bill Floyd (District 1 Post B)
• Kecia Cunningham (District 2 Post B)
• Jim Baskett At Large

Qualifying for School Board:

• Garrett Goebel (District 1 Post B)
• Peggy Bumgardner (District 1 Post B)
• Julie Rhame (District 2 Post B)

As you can see, the only race inside the city limits will be between Garrett Goebel and Peggy Bumgardner, who will vie for John Ahmann’s vacated spot.  District 2’s Julie Rhame will also run unopposed for her School Board seat.
