Less than a week remains for candidates to file for local government, school board and emergency service board elections.
The deadline to file for local elected offices is Jan. 21. Elections will be held April 7.

Former Marthasville Alderman Christopher DeVore is seeking to return to the city’s board of aldermen representing the city’s Southwest Ward. DeVore was elected to the board in 2016, and missed re-election by a little over 20 votes in 2018.
