First Movements Seen In Redding Council Race

The next election for Redding City Council is not until next year, but there is at least on candidate who has already thrown her hat in the ring. According to the Redding Record Searchlight, Redding nurse practitioner Julie Winter filed paperwork last month that allows her to begin fundraising and building a campaign. 

Meantime, Vice Mayor Missy McCarthur told the paper that she is not planning on seeking re-election next year, hinting that she may have her sights set on the Shasta County Board of Supervisors. 

Although preliminary papers can be filed now, officially no candidate can declare for the 2016 election, with its two open seats, until next summer.
