Neufer accepts write-in nomination

WORLAND – A write-in candidate for a Ward 3 city council seat gains ballot access after accepting the official nomination.

City Clerk Tracy Glanz confirmed Michael Neufer filed for the council seat position on Tuesday morning.

Neufer received enough write-in votes to appear on the general election ballot for a Ward 3 four-year term after the canvassing board verified he had enough votes last Thursday.

Previously, Marcus Sanchez of Ward 3 was running unopposed. Now, he and Neufer will face off in the general election in November.

Michael Neufer could not be reached for comment by press time.
