Candidate Withdrawls

As the email below notes, two candidates for city council have withdrawn from the election, ergo no primary, which does save the since the expense of running two separate elections:

Due to the withdrawal of two candidates, the three (3) Council seats up for election are now uncontested. [65 ILCS 5/3.1-20-45]. As such, there will be no primary held for the purpose of narrowing the field of City Council Member candidates. The two candidates who filed their withdrawals with the local election official are Lorena Masterson, effective January 4, 2013, and Carl R. Flowers, effective January 8, 2013.
