Three seeking Commerce City Mayor’s seat

November’s ballot contains 12 candidates seeking a seat

Posted

Three candidates will seek to replace outgoing Mayor Ben Huseman in Commerce City’s November ballot.

In all, 12 candidates are seeking to fill three open seats.

For the mayor’s chair, Steve Douglas, Joseph Dreiling and René Bullock are seeking to replace Huseman. The mayor is elected at large by all voters in the city and serves a four year term.

Two councilor-at-large seats are open this November as well and incumbent city councilors Craig Kim and Craig Hurst are seeking another term. They’ll face challengers Charles Dukes and Ryan Keefer for those seats. All Commerce City voters get to cast a ballot for two of those candidates, with the top two vote-getters winning the seat.

In Commerce City’s wards, incumbents Jennifer Allen-Thomas, Renée Millard-Chacon and Susan Noble are all seeking additional terms.

Allen-Thomas will face challenger Rocky Teeter for the Ward 2 City Council seat. Millard-Chacon has not formal opposition for a full term in her Ward 3 seat but Rich Trujillo has been declared an official write-in candidate for that seat. Voters will need to write his name on the ballot and select it to vote for him.

In Ward 4, Noble faces challenger David Diop.

Voters can get more information on the ballot at Commerce City’s election web page, https://www.c3gov.com/government/elections.
