Two candidates are running for Star mayor in the Nov. 7 general election, as Mayor Trevor Chadwick seeks reelection to a second term and Michele Miles attempts to unseat him.
In the Idaho Statesman’s 2023 Voter Guide, both candidates focused on topics like infrastructure and the rapid growth of the city. The mayor would serve a four-year term.
Chadwick joined the Star City Council in 2016, and in his first bid for mayor in 2019, he made transportation a top priority. Now, he hopes to expand upon that, as well as public safety.
Miles, a physician assistant and political newcomer, said she looks to manage the city’s growth. Star has been ranked as one of the fastest-growing cities in Idaho in the last year.
