Here's who filed for Tulsa city offices today, the final day of the filing period.
Mayor: Northside neighborhood activist James Alexander Jr. (Democrat), James Oliver Desmond Jr. (Democrat), Benford L Faulk (Independent), County Commissioner Randi Miller (Republican), Paul C. Tay (Independent).
Council:
District 1: Roger Lowry (Democrat -- Lowry was the GOP nominee in 2004).
District 3: Gerald A. Rapson (Republican).
District 4: Robert C. Bartlett (Republican).
District 5: Doug Linson (Republican), neighborhood activist Al Nichols (Democrat -- finished 4th in the May special election to fill Sam Roop's seat).
District 9: Phil Kates (Democrat).
Below is the complete and final list of filers. There won't be a general election in Districts 1, 2, 7, or 8. District 2, which was held by Democrat Darla Hall for 10 years, didn't draw a single Democratic candidate. There's a Republican in 3 and a single Democrat in each of 6 and 9, but the odds favor the majority party in each district. Only 4 and 5 promise to have a competitive general election, but the mayoral race will more than make up for that.
Full list of candidates, organized by office and party, after the jump.

This year let's all vote for the person with the best platform....not straight down party lines. We owe it to Tulsa.

Most of the important decisions will be made long before it comes down to one party versus another. Some voters should consider changing their party registration so that they can be a part of the decision. As it is, only Republicans will choose Councilors in three districts, and for all practical purposes decide two other seats, while two seats will be decided by Democrats.
