Mission Viejo voters will consider 5 candidates in the November election

City Seal

Five candidates are now officially lined up for three open Mission Viejo City Council seats in November. The deadline to file papers ended on August 10.

Mayor Ed Sachs, Mayor Pro Tem Greg Raths and Council Member Wendy Bucknum are up for re-election. On November 6, voters will consider them along with candidates Mahmoud El-Farra and Michael McConnell. The five candidates are running for two-year terms rather than the typical four-year term because of the recent Voting Rights Litigation Settlement.

Successful candidates will be sworn into office on December 11, 2018 (or as soon as possible thereafter) following the canvass of returns and the declaration of the official results of the election by the City Council.

The public can review the “Candidate Statements” on the City’s website or obtain copies from the City Clerk’s office (cityclerk@cityofmissionviejo.org).
