Ward 7 Now Has An Alderman Race




Add this to the mix...

Katjana Ballantyne announced today via Facebook that she will take another shot at the Ward 7 alderman seat held by Bob Trane. Trane defeated Ballantyne in 2011.

This announcement comes amid speculation that the Ward 7 incumbant would be stepping down from his seat to take a job in the private sector. No confirmation has been made by Trane regarding that rumor.

Ballantyne joins fellow Progressive Democrat Mark Niedergang-who announced, in August, he would running against incumbant Sean O'Donovan for the Ward 5 seat.

Be sure to check out the Ward 7 Somerville blog for all the latest in this race as I'm sure (hope?) it will heat up with new posts!

If Trane does bow out, does anyone else get in this race?
