Reggie Gaffney draws second challenger for Jacksonville City Council

McCullough

Despite the election for Jacksonville City Council seats being two years away, a second candidate has jumped in to oppose incumbent Reggie Gaffney.

Marc McCulloughwho ran in 2011 and 2015, is running again in District 7.

In 2015, McCullough drew 408 votes — good for 3.5 percent — in the first election.

McCullough’s entry follows that of Chaussee Gibson, who filed last week.

McCullough conducted a 2015 candidate interview with the Florida Times-Union, in which he outlined his positions on the issues of the day.

Gaffney has not filed to run for re-election yet; what is clear, however, is that people in the district see him as vulnerable.
