"James F. King, Jr.
of Jefferson Park Circle, submitted petitions (with 150 to 155 signatures)
in the city's registrar's office on Tuesday announcing his intention to
run for City Council ... Independent candidates must submit petitions bearing
the names of at least 125 registered voters" (The Daily Progress,
March 4, 1998).
The names were checked
on Wednesday and James King will be on the ballot. King is a neighborhood activist who believes that
City Council needs someone non-partisan to help promote cooperation between
the City of Charlottesville, Albemarle County, and the University of Virginia
(Kimberly O'Brien, The Daily Progress, March 5, 1998).
