Strathmore resident Claude Brown puts in bid to run for town council
Strathmore resident Claude Brown is the first registered candidate for the upcoming municipal election.
Brown placed his bid on Mar. 10 at the Strathmore Municipal Building and said he hopes to bring a new face to town council.
"I feel very qualified to do that. I've talked to a lot of people in town, and I really feel that I represent their points of view, and I want to bring that to council and do my part."
First candidate for council submits nomination papers
Dan Cunin has submitted his papers to municipal election returning officer Jaylene Robertson today and is set to become the first registered candidate for town councillor.
Cunin is making his fourth run at winning a seat on council and has been the first to register each time.
Cunin, a 22-year resident of Cochrane, says he continues to file his papers early for good reason. He wants to engage with as many Cochranites as possible to hear their concerns and ideas and share his own before the Oct. 20 election.
