LAKE CHARLES, La. (KPLC) -Qualifying wrapped up Friday for various offices including mayor of Lake Charles. Incumbent Nic Hunter faces three challengers and election officials confirm at least one does not have an address within the city limits of Lake Charles.
To qualify, candidates must meet certain requirements. And to run for Lake Charles mayor you must live inside the city. Most would say “city limits” but one candidate disputes that wording.
