What follows is the statement Jack Nobles released upon conceding the City Council District 8 At-Large race to Diane Mack:
After a great deal of prayerful introspection and with the advice and support of my family, I have withdrawn as a candidate for re-election to our City Council.
I wish my successor, Diane Mack, the best and [...]
As Rick Outzen has just reported (I was too busy picking my jaw up off the floor to post), Pensacola City Councilman Jack Nobles has issued a press release, conceding the race to Diane Mack.
I can’t figure out why. Either he’s gotten wind of the forces which were about to come down upon him, [...]
2008 City runoffs / 2008 Congressional elections / C. J. Lewis / Diane Mack / Jacqueline Shumaker / Larry B. Johnson / Maren DeWeese / Megan Benson Pratt
November 6, 2008 2Unfortunately, voters only retired one City Council incumbent on Tuesday — but it was a good one.
Congratulations to Maren DeWeese for ousting 20-year incumbent Mike DeSorbo. I can’t tell you how satisfied I am that our City government is rid of him.
Congratulations also to Megan Benson Pratt for her sound victory in the District [...]
Dr. Martin Luther King said in 1967:
We are now faced with the fact, my friends, that tomorrow is today. We are confronted with the fierce urgency of now.
His words, as they so often do, ring so clear and so true forty years later. I feel that fierce urgency. We can’t wait two or [...]

Smith, the former City Councilman who once represented north Pensacola’s District 2 from downtown’s Port Royal condos, and whom is running again for Council, this time in an at-large race. Smith faces an uphill battle against Megan Benson Pratt and Wendell Rich, who both have [...]
Joe Buehler filed this morning to join the race for the District 8 (At-Large) seat on the Pensacola City Council. The seat is currently held by Jack Nobles, who has occupied the seat since 1995. Local business owner and City budget watchdog Diane Mack entered the race earlier this month.
Jack Nobles and Mike Wiggins, the Pensacola City Council’s two at-large members, and perhaps its two most do-nothing and anti-progress members, now have challengers in this fall’s elections.
Both candidates have been on the City Council since 1995. The last serious challenge to either was in 2004, when Ray Russenberger failed in his bid to unseat [...]
