Dallas City Council Election Filing Deadline Closes. Who's On The Ballot?
More than three dozen current and former elected officials, perennial candidates and newcomers are vying for 14 seats on the Dallas City Council this spring.
The filing deadline for candidates to gain a spot on the May 3 election ballot was 5 p.m. Friday. Write-in candidates have until Tuesday to declare their candidacy. The deadline to withdraw from the ballot is next Friday.
Dallas voters will elect at least four new council members, representing District 4 in south Oak Cliff, District 6 in West Dallas, a vast stretch of far southern Dallas in District 8 and District 11 in North Dallas.
Council member Jaynie Schultz (District 11) is not seeking a third term, and council members Carolyn King Arnold (District 4), Tennell Atkins (District 8) and Omar Narvaez (District 6) are ineligible to run in 2025 because theyve served the limit of four two-year terms.
