The MSU student hoping to run for an East Lansing City Council seat might have to wait two more years. Caleb Marker, an international relations junior, turned his petition into City Clerk Sharon Reid, Tuesday with 55 signatures but not all signatures were valid, she said. A candidate must turn in an petition with at least 50 valid signatures from registered East Lansing voters. Five of Marker's signatures did not belong to registered voters in East Lansing and two were illegible, bringing Marker's signature total below the mark, Reid said. The clerk's office is working to verify the last two signatures, which must be validated for Marker's name to appear on the ballot. Marker also sits on The State News Board of Directors. If Marker's petition cannot be verified, only the three incumbents will be candidates.

Jayson Blair, a former Times reporter, quit his job earlier this month after being questioned about an article he wrote about a missing Army mechanic in Iraq.
