June 27 is Election Day in the Lubbock City Council District 4 Special Election.
This is separate from the regular Lubbock municipal elections earlier this summer, which saw races for Lubbock Mayor, and City Council representatives for Districts 1, 3, and 5.
The special election was initiated due to the resignation of current representative Brayden Rose, who announced he would be stepping down for personal reasons in March.
Rose took office in May 2024. Whoever is elected to take his position will serve out the remainder of his term and a regularly scheduled election will take place in 2028.
There are five candidates on the ballot: Gary Boren, Stephanie Ferran, Tim Green, Bill Curnow, and Boyd Goodloe.
You can find KTTZ’s interviews with four of those candidates here.
Only voters in District 4 can cast a ballot for this election. According to the Lubbock County Elections Office, 1,880 District 4 voters turned out for early voting.
Lubbock City Council District 4 covers portions of South Lubbock, largely between Slide Road and University Avenue.
