Some how this slipped by me, but it now means there will be at least one primary for the Iowa City council race.From the P-C: Another contender has entered the Iowa City Council race.
Iowa City resident Tim Judd, 26, will run for one of two at-large seats in contention this election season. He will be up against Iowa City council member Dee Vanderhoef, neighborhood activist Mike Wright, MidAmerican Energy’s local operations manager Terry Smith, and attorney Matt Hayek. Iowa City Mayor Ross Wilburn and council member Regenia Bailey also will seek re-election in districts A and C, respectively.
Judd, who graduated from the University of Iowa last spring with a bachelor’s degree in political science and minors in sociology and psychology, is the youngest candidate so far. He grew up in Davenport.
“It doesn’t have anything do with age, only the issues,” he said Monday. “I feel like I have, in my time here, garnered a good perspective on what the city needs.”
