With all four of its races uncontested, the Granite Shoals City Council will consider canceling the May 1 election.

Interested residents had until Feb. 12 to file for the May 1 municipal elections. Those who filed are Will Skinner for mayor, Ron Munos for Place 1, Samantha Ortis for Place 3, and Eddie McCoy for Place 5.

Skinner and Munos are incumbents for their spots.

Kenneth Bradshaw had filed to run for Place 5 but withdrew his application on Feb. 16.

The council will also consider appointing Ortis as the Place 3 councilor during the Feb. 23 meeting to replace Jim Davant, who resigned from that seat
