At the deadline for Independent candidates for City Council At-Large, Nathan Eberly has submitted petitions to the Board of Elections for verification in hoeps of being certified to appear on the November 2017 ballot. The November General Election is expected to have at least six candidates with Eberly joining the race in official status, pending verification and certification by the Board of Elections.

This will come after the Primary Election for tomorrow, May 2, and along side the election certification process for the election results.
