The Richmond municipal election is around the corner and there are plenty of candidates to choose from.

Trying to narrow down who to vote for can be difficult, especially if you’re in the millennial age bracket.

With the help of the Forum for Millennial Leadership (FML), Daily Hive has worked to create a list of candidates under 40 running in the Richmond municipal race.
