alamedacountyca.gov (opens in a new tab)Alameda County Registrar of Voters -- official Candidate List system (electionId 260, "General Election - 11/03/2026 (Official)"), queried directly via its own JSON/HTML API (POST /rov_app/candidatelist/) for Emeryville's one City-category race (categoryId 600, raceId 96, "For Members of City Council, Emeryville", Vote For: 2): Corry Frydlewicz ("Web Developer/Manager"), David Mourra ("Emeryville City Councilmember"), Kalimah Atreyu Priforce ("City Councilmember"), Brandon Soublet ("No Ballot Designation"). Names ballot designations verbatim as filed. The system's own "Incumbent" field reads "N" for all four candidates -- this dataset does not treat that field as reliable and instead confirms incumbency independently against the City of Emeryville's own public meeting-records system (see emeryville-legistar-officerecords-2026).
webapi.legistar.com (opens in a new tab)City of Emeryville's own public Legistar (Granicus) meeting-records system, queried directly via its public JSON API for every office record tied to the "City Council" body (BodyId 138): shows David Mourra and Kalimah A. Priforce both as sitting Council Members continuously from Dec. 12, 2022 through the most recently posted full annual term (Dec. 11, 2024 - Dec. 16, 2025) -- Mourra rotating through Council Member, then Vice Mayor (2023-2024), then Mayor (2024-2025); Priforce as Council Member throughout. Also confirms John J. Bauters left the council after the 2023-2024 term (consistent with his winning a county Board of Supervisors seat) and that Matthew Solomon joined for 2024-2025, replacing him. No later office-record term has been posted as of this dataset's retrieval.
en.wikipedia.org (opens in a new tab)Wikipedia's Emeryville, California article -- 2020 census population (12,905); incorporated Dec. 8, 1896; a council-manager government in which "the mayor does not hold any formal authority separate from the council" and "one mayor and one vice mayor are chosen from and by the members of the council" annually; names the current mayor as Sukhdeep Kaur -- the Vice Mayor of the last-posted Legistar term -- independent corroboration of the same annual Vice-Mayor-to-Mayor succession pattern Legistar's own history shows for Welch (2023) and Mourra (2024).
en.wikipedia.org (opens in a new tab)Wikipedia's John Bauters article, read for its Emeryville City Council background (Bauters served on the council 2016-2024 before winning a county Board of Supervisors seat): states "Emeryville residents elect five City Council Members to four-year terms," with elections alternating between 3-seat and 2-seat cycles -- Nov. 2026 is a 2-seat cycle, matching the county's own "Vote For: 2" for this race -- and confirms David Mourra's Dec. 2023 elevation to Vice Mayor, corroborating Legistar's own office-record history.
netfile.com (opens in a new tab)Emeryville has no NetFile portal of its own; its candidates file through Alameda County's own NetFile-hosted public campaign-finance portal (agency code COA, confirmed via NetFile's own public agency directory), queried directly via its own QuickNameSearch and filings/byFiler|byCandidate JSON API for all four 2026 candidates. Mourra's 2026 committee ("Committee to Elect David Mourra For Emeryville City Council 2026") and Frydlewicz's ("Corry Frydlewicz for Emeryville City Council 2026") have each filed only an initial FPPC Form 410 (Statement of Organization) -- July 24, 2026 and July 21, 2026, respectively -- no Form 460 for either. Priforce has no 2026 city-council committee on file at all: only an unrelated "Kalimah Priforce Legal Defense Fund" committee (Form 410 filed July 25, 2025) and a 2023 "Kalimah Priforce Democratic Central Committee AD 18" filing, neither tied to this race. Soublet has no filer or committee located on the portal at all.

City of Emeryville

Emeryville City Council

This person would hold one of two at-large seats on Emeryville's City Council. The council has five members in all. Three of them continue in their seats this cycle. They vote on city laws, the budget, and land use. Emeryville is an Alameda County city with about 12,900 residents. An appointed City Manager runs day-to-day operations. The term is four years. The Mayor and Vice Mayor are not separately elected. The council picks both roles from its own members each year.

Two seats are up on Emeryville's City Council. Both sitting councilmembers whose terms expire this cycle are running for reelection. They are David Mourra and Kalimah Atreyu Priforce. Two first-time candidates are also running. They are Corry Frydlewicz and Brandon Soublet.

Emeryville's City Council has five members, all elected at-large citywide (no districts) to 4-year terms; elections alternate between 3-seat and 2-seat cycles, and Nov. 2026 is a 2-seat cycle. The Council sets city policy and adopts the budget under a council-manager government with an appointed City Manager. The Mayor and Vice Mayor hold no separately elected office -- they are chosen annually by and from the council's own five members. Voters may vote for up to two candidates; the two highest vote-getters win the two seats.

The county's own candidate-filing system marks the "Incumbent" field "N" for all four candidates, including Mourra and Priforce -- this dataset does not treat that field as reliable. The City of Emeryville's own public meeting-records system (Legistar) independently confirms both as sitting Council Members continuously since Dec. 12, 2022, with Mourra additionally rotating through Vice Mayor (2023-2024) and Mayor (2024-2025) under the council's annual rotation.

David Mourra

David Mourra is the sitting Emeryville City Councilmember. Their ballot designation is "Emeryville City Councilmember." City records show they have served continuously since December 12, 2022. They were Vice Mayor for the 2023 to 2024 council year. Then they were Mayor for 2024 to 2025. Emeryville rotates both positions each year among its five members. Their 2026 campaign committee has filed only an initial organization form, dated July 24, 2026. No fundraising report has been filed yet.

Kalimah Atreyu Priforce

Kalimah Atreyu Priforce is a sitting Emeryville City Councilmember. Their ballot designation is "City Councilmember." City records show they have served continuously since December 12, 2022. That covers through the most recent posted council year, December 2024 to December 2025. No 2026 council campaign committee was found under their name. Two unrelated committees turned up instead. One was called the Kalimah Priforce Legal Defense Fund. The other was a 2023 filing for a county Democratic Central Committee seat. Neither is related to this race.

Corry Frydlewicz

Corry Frydlewicz is a first-time candidate. Their ballot designation is "Web Developer/Manager." No campaign website, news coverage, or other biography was found for them. Their 2026 campaign committee has filed only an initial organization form, dated July 21, 2026. No fundraising report has been filed yet.

Brandon Soublet

Brandon Soublet is a first-time candidate. They filed with no ballot designation at all. The county's candidate list marks them "No Ballot Designation." No campaign website, news coverage, or biography of any kind was found for them. No campaign committee or filer under their name was found. So no fundraising or spending information exists to report.
