Fourth person attempting mayoral run

It appears there may be a four-way race for Van Wert mayor this fall.

Robert Myers apparently submitted his nominating petitions with the Van Wert County Board of Elections just before last Wednesday’s 4 p.m. deadline. The board’s website said his petitions are pending.

If the petitions are valid, Myers will join a field that includes incumbent Ken Markward and two other challengers, Linda-Agler Evans and Fredrick Fisher.
