Two candidates have qualified for the open Ward 1 seat on the Selma City Council.
Denson Henry and Felicia Y. King Thomas will face off in a special election on Dec. 8. The seat is open after the council removed Troy Harvill from the seat in June because he stopped attending meetings.
City Clerk Ivy Harrison informed the Selma City Council of the two candidates who hope to join the council at the council’s Tuesday meeting. Qualifying ended at 5 p.m. Tuesday.
Thomas ran for the Ward 1 seat in the 2025 municipal election that Harvill won.
