Eight candidates are squaring off against each other to claim four at-large Boston City Council seats on Election Day on Tuesday. Who are you going to vote for?
One thing for sure is that Mayor Michelle Wu is going to win because Josh Kraft dropped out of the race after placing a very distant second in September’s election.

Not sure who to vote for yet? Jamaica Plain News did Q&As with seven of eight of the candidates, including the four incumbents (Henry Santana, Ruthzee Louijeune, Julia Mejia, and Erin Murphy). (Former District City Councilor Frank Baker didn’t return answers)
Q&A: Council President Louijeune on ABCs of Affordability, Beekeeping, Community-Building, and More
Q&A: Murphy’s BPS Teaching Experience, Helps Inform Her as City Councilor
Q&A: Mathelier’s a Marine, Cafe Owner, Supports Rent Stabilization, and Running for City Council
Another race that’s probably not going to be too close is the District 6 City Council race between incumbent Ben Weber, who’s finishing up his first term, and Steven Berry. Weber answered questions from Jamaica Plain News, while Berry did not provide answers for the Q&A.
Q&A: Weber on Helping Evictees, Commercial Vacancy Tax, and Extending Green Line to Canary Square
