On the ballot
- Glenn Murphy — Retired Navy Photographer
This person would hold one of five district seats on Lemoore's City Council: the budget, land use, and city ordinances for this Kings County city. A 4-year term. The council doesn't elect its mayor directly -- members choose one of their own to serve as mayor.
Only one candidate, Glenn Murphy, qualified for this seat -- so this contest is settled and your vote here does not change the outcome. The sitting incumbent did not file to run again.

The sitting District A incumbent, Stuart Dana Lyons, did not file to run again, per Kings County's own candidate-qualification record.
