New Bedford Ward 3 City Councilor Hugh Dunn and Ward 6 Councilor Joe Lopes are running unopposed in this year’s municipal election. The deadline to turn in 50 signatures came and went yesterday with no one completing the process except for Dunn and Lopes.

Hugh Dunn defeated Beth Santos-Fauteux handily with 69% of the vote in special Ward 3 City Council race earlier this year to replace popular councilor Henry Bousquet.

Joe Lopes ran unopposed in 2015 and won 85% of the vote against Ian Saunders in 2013.
