Increasingly, the Ward 2 race for City Council is resembling an episode of Sesame Street -- one in which Count von Count plays a big part.
Remember when we here at BCR said on Saturday that at least a fourth challenger would be entering the race to challenge Clement, who's trying to win a re-election bid that would bring him into a fourth decade of service on Council?
Well, Sandra Howell filed for the seat today (H/T to the Indy for breaking the news.) And Howell wasn't the person we were referring to here last week.
Which means, we're looking at five, count 'em, FIVE candidates for the seat.
There's little about Sandra Howell in the public record; it appears she applied to serve on the city/county merger commission in 2000, and has worked as a cosmetologist and DPS substitute teacher. We'll post more as we know it.
For the carefully-cadenced Clement, simply getting out the names of all his lengthening list of challengers may be enough to consume any candidate-debate opening statements, the way things are shaping up.
