Voters in San Marcos will have their chance to cast their ballots for San Marcos mayor, two city council positions and a proposition on Tuesday.
In the mayoral election, incumbent Jane Hughson is seeking a third term and faces a challenge from former Mayor John Thomaides. San Marcos City Councilmember Maxfield Baker is running for reelection for council Place 1. Matthew Mendoza, a current member of the Planning and Zoning commission, is challenging Baker for Place 1. San Marcos City Councilmember Saul Gonzales is running for reelection for council place 2. Atom Von Arndt is challenging Gonzales for Place 2.
Voters will also consider Proposition A, which eliminates the enforcement of marijuana possession up to 4 ounces. San Marcos police, however, could cite an individual or make an arrest for Class A or Class B misdemeanor possession of marijuana if it’s a part of an investigation involving a felony-level narcotics case or the investigation of a violent felony.
