Incumbents Jack Reger and Pam Bucklew have filed to run for re-election to City Council. The third incumbent whose seat is up this year, C.J. Rylands, did not file to run for re-election.
The six other candidates to file to run in the non-partisan City Council race include John Antolini, Laura Foulks, Scott Randall, Mike Ruffing, Jim Valenson and Robert Zuliani.

The final day for candidates to withdraw from the election will be Tuesday, Feb. 13.
The drawing for position on the ballot will be Feb. 20 at 9 a.m. in the County Clerk's Office of the Upshur County Courthouse.
