The election to select Council Members for Places 2, 4, 6 (Mayor), 7 and 8 will be conducted on May 1, 2021. Early voting starts April 19-17. All places are elected at large. Candidates for Places 2 and 4 must live in the districts they are running for. Place 7 is a special election, because Council member Bao is stepping down to run for Mayor. The following is a list of all the candidates running in each race. The names are in alphabetical order. City council races are nonpartisan. If the candidate has a primary voting record, we wrote it down under their name. We strongly recommend everyone to do their homework on all the candidates. Question everything they say, and don’t take anything they tell you at face value. Remember these are politicians, so you must read between the lines. If they have a voting record on a board or council, look it up. PPPB does not and is not endorsing any candidate.

So true! Question everything they say, and don’t take anything they tell you at face value. Remember these are politicians, so you must read between the lines.

Good write up, however, I take issue with the comment, "remember these are politicians, so you must read between the lines." I am not a politician, I am a school teacher who has a vested interest in my community. I will be completely honest with everyone I come into contact with. My agenda, if you can call it that, is to keep Plano a safe and attractive city with strong economic growth.
