At last night City Council meeting Diane McCall (left) & Lynn Edmunds (right) took their Oath to Office as the new members of the Fillmore City Council.

The Oath of Office was administered to Lynn Edmonds, Fillmore's new City Council Woman. Certificates of Election were also presented to Edmonds and Diane McCall. McCall took second place and will return to her seat on the Council. Incumbent Carrie Broggie will not be returning to the Council. According to the Ventura Star, "Edmonds raised far more than her competitors. .... Edmonds also got money from political committees of two unions: the Southern California District Council of Laborers and the AFL-CIO. And she received contributions and endorsements from the Ventura County Democratic Central Committee and the Santa Clara Valley Democratic Club." (Tony Biasotti, Ventura County Star). Neither Diane McCall nor Carrie Broggie sought money outside. Fillmore Mayor Manuel Minjares praised Carrie Broggie for her exceptional work on the Council. This marks the first time in Fillmore election history that outside political parties and associates contributed significant money to the Council race.
