Notes

General Note:
Ezell Hester (1931-1989) worked 31 years as an educator, including 13 years teaching mathematics at Congress Middle School. Hester was the first African-American to run for City Council (1966). He became Acting Mayor in July 1988 when Nick Cassandra stepped down, until the 6 Sept 1988 election. In 1988, a 2 term limit was introduced, so Hester was not able to run for Mayor.
