TWENTY-Nine people have been nominated to run as candidates for Redland City Council in next month’s local government election.

Returning officer Harold Guy, who has been running elections in Redlands since 2012, said candidate nominations were slightly up on the last election.

Nominations for the council’s 10 seats and mayor closed at midday on Tuesday.

Candidates will learn where their names fall on ballot papers when Mr Guy draws names out of a box at 10am on Wednesday.

Mayor Karen WIlliams and former council general manager Greg Underwood were the only two candidates for the position of mayor.

When electoral rolls closed on Friday, February 12, there were 101,714 people registered to vote on Saturday, March 19. That was up from the 93,402 people registered for the 2012 local government election.

Division 6 had the most number of voters registered with 10,953 and Division 9 had 9852 registered, which was the smallest electorate.

Across the city, there were 52,974 women enrolled compared with 48,740 men.
