The purpose of the convention is to choose candidates whose names will be placed on the November ballot.
Four Republican candidates are in the running for three at-large Town Council seats. They are incumbents Don Foley and Carol Eckstein, plus David Laine and Randall Zins.
Two more Republicans filed to run for Clerk-Treasurer. They are incumbent Cheryl Taylor and Nancy Dobson.
A convention is being held in place of a regular election because no Democratic candidates filed paperwork to be placed on this year’s ballot.
Participating voters must be present when the convention starts in order to cast a vote.
The convention was scheduled by the Ripley County Election Division.
