Caught Matthew Owen in the act!

Jon Yalcinkaya confirmed on his blog that he is picking up papers at City Council after work today.

Jon confirmed via email that he did pick up papers.

I am at City Hall right now and Matthew Owen is here. He is meeting with Pam Powell right now. He kept saying it is not "official" until he turns in the papers.

Matthew Owen was the first person at City Hall at the City administration office today.

John Fullerton was the second person after Matthew Owen.

Both have been out collecting signatures today. John Fullerton turned in all his required signatures and paperwork by the end of the day.

Matthew Owen vs Jon Yalcinkaya for Eureka City Council, anyone else want to join them

Monday, July 18 is the day, candidates can officially pick up papers to run for Linda Atkins seat and Melinda Ciarabellini's seat on Eureka City Council.

Jon Yalcinkaya is running. He has already picked up papers to fundraise a while back so I knew he would be running. I have also spoken to Jon myself a couple of times.

According to couple of sources, Jon will pick up papers Monday for Linda Atkins seat.

The breaking news though is his potential opponent.

Matthew Owen will also be picking up papers Monday for Linda Atkins seat.

John Fullerton has told me he will be running for Melinda Ciarabellini's seat. When I saw incumbent Melinda Ciarabellini on 4th of July, she was still undecided about running again for another term.
