It has been confirmed that Sean McCluskey is in the race for the Ward 5 seat being vacated by Steve Leal. McCluskey is a political rookie that’s fed up with the way Tucson is being run. He will challenge Judith Gomez in the ward primary. The winner will face Fimbres in a city wide election.
So here’s the run down so far:
Ward 5-
Incumbent – None
Democratic Candidate – Richard Fimbres
Republican Candidates – Judith Gomez and Sean McCluskey (winner of primary moves on to general)
Ward 3
Democrat Incumbent – Karin Uhlich
Republican Candidate – Ben Buehler Garcia
Ward 6
Democrat Incumbent – Nina Trasoff
Republican Candidate – Steve Kozachick
It should be a long, hot summer!
