Two Macon city councilmen and a former mayoral candidate are vying for the District 2 commission seat in the new Macon-Bibb County consolidated government.
The District 2 candidates are councilmen Henry Ficklin and Larry Schlesinger, and Paul Bronson, a former Macon-Bibb firefighter who resigned to run for mayor in 2011.
Ficklin, 64, is a retired Bibb County teacher and the pastor of Mount Vernon Baptist Church. He served 28 years on city council before resigning in 2007 to run for mayor. In 2010 he was elected to the Ward 3, Post 2 council seat. He holds a doctorate in educational leadership from Mercer University.
